A Classroom Kidnapping in Rural Victoria.

In February 1977, Rob Hunter was just 20 years old and nine days into his first teaching role when an armed gunman entered his classroom at Wooreen, Victoria. Rob and nine students were taken hostage.

In part one of this two-episode conversation, Rob recounts the events of that day and the responsibility placed on him in an unfolding crisis.

Content note: This episode contains discussion of kidnapping and a firearm in a school setting.
