Credits and reuse

Original SubjectNest material

The lessons, made-up examples, eight new assessment stories, practice records, original diagrams, temporary model interaction and written narration in this source edition are newly authored. We offer the original teaching text under the repository's established CC BY4.0 resource notice, with item metadata saying SubjectNest/NeuroForge and the edition/date. Original creator, checker, styles and Water Trail code are Apache-2.0; the complete portable software licence travels with this edition. This edition does not invent an authority to change another repository-wide licence. A later generated image/audio needs its own tool/provider provenance and reuse terms before publication. No generated bitmap, recorded audio, sourced image or copied cultural material exists in this source edition.

ACARA does not endorse any product that uses the Australian Curriculum or make any representations as to the quality of such products. Any product that uses material published on this website should not be taken to be affiliated with ACARA or have the sponsorship or approval of ACARA.

It is up to each person to make their own assessment of the product, taking into account matters including, but not limited to, the version number and the degree to which the materials align with the content descriptions and achievement standards (where relevant). Where there is a claim of alignment, it is important to check that the materials align with the content descriptions and achievement standards (endorsed by all education Ministers), not the elaborations (examples provided by ACARA).

Source edition and modification: the inherited curriculum material was modified for plain-text display and SubjectNest mapping. Covered core material is licensed under CC BY4.0, subject to item-specific exclusions and the copyright and terms of use. The inherited9October 2026 acquisition reports the same workbook body; this edition does not replace the historical snapshot identity with a new download claim.

It is important to check the frequency with which the platform or app is updated and, if the platform or app allows users to download the Australian Curriculum to their portable device, how often and in what circumstances the user’s device synchronises with the platform.

Platform update/synchronisation disclosure: this edition uses the dated recorded snapshot above. Updates require recorded source review and acceptance; there is no continuous automatic curriculum synchronisation. If a user later downloads a resource, it is that dated edition and does not synchronise automatically on their device. Follow the original source/edition links to check for updates. Any later sync mechanism needs a truthful frequency/circumstances statement.

First Nations Cultural and Intellectual Property and other excluded materials are not licensed for reuse by a general curriculum copyright notice. No permission to reproduce/translate language, map restricted sites or create generic cultural practices is supplied. Relevant authorised custodians must control any later place-specific contribution, including credit, access and withdrawal requirements.

Queensland guidance

Modified from Year 4 Science alignment, Year 4 Science standard elaborations and Years 3–4 suggested assessment conditions, © State of Queensland (QCAA) 2023. Covered guidance is licensed under CC BY4.0; see QCAA copyright for exclusions including logos, student work, glossary material and third-party items. Modification: original local task/evidence mapping and access options. No official QCAA A–E grid, student sample, logo or glossary is reproduced. Source guidance was read 9October 2026; the publication dates remain 2023. QCAA has not approved or endorsed this pack.

Science and local references

Bureau copyright was reviewed for source-specific/third-party limits. The cited clouds article includes third-party imagery/republication credits; no diagram/photo/text passage is copied. Science Learning Hub copyright was read; its noncommercial education terms are not treated as a licence to import assets into this platform. USGS citations support narrow scientific facts; no USGS model, activity or media is copied. Rockhampton Council indexed pages support a narrow original public-supply fact; no Council image/paragraph is imported and no blanket reuse licence is asserted.

New explanatory diagrams use our own shapes and wording, with a factual-source link rather than a claim that the reference publisher made or approved the asset. Written scripts are not recorded audio. Text adaptations/translations must preserve state/process/data limits and be reviewed by a competent speaker before a verified-translation label. No translated version, especially First Nations language, is asserted by this English edition.
