About this word search
Getting around Australia covers a lot of ground, and this list reflects it. The Ute is the obvious local word, the open-backed workhorse of farms and tradies, while the Ferry is part of daily life on Sydney Harbour and the Tram belongs to the streets of Melbourne.
Each vehicle is parked in a row, in a column or at an angle, and none has been put in reverse. Helicopter and Hovercraft, ten letters each, are the two biggest targets on the board. Train, Tram, Truck and Tractor all open with TR, so read past the second letter before marking one.
For a travel topic, children can split the list into things that move on land, on water and in the air, then argue about where the Rocket goes.
