[Bf-education] Blender conference and curriculum

[J Le Rossignol]

Hi Doug,

I have an entire Blender course written for the Australian Curriculum, and
I'm happy to share. Even though I'm teaching in secondary school the first
half could easily be used with primary students.

Cheers,
Jamie Le Rossignol
