Modern humans emerged from Africa some 150,000 years ago and have subsequently migrated across the world. In Australia, our most ancient immigrants arrived as the First People around 60,000 years ago. Recent immigrants began arriving over 200 years ago, with the coming of the First Fleet.
At the listed coordinates, you will find a sign describing migrant housing at what was once the Eastbridge Migrant Centre in Nunawading. NOTE: A new sign was placed in July 2021, and so the numbers have now been updated. Collect the following information:
A = number of times the word migrants (with an s) occurs
B = number of cars pictured
C = last digit of the year the Eastbridge Migrant Centre closed
D = first digit of the Council's telephone number
E = random question: would squirrels also be considered recent immigrants to Australia? (Yes = 9 No = 6)
F = lines of text in the final paragraph
Checksum: A+B+C+D+E+F = 39
