Seems like "Todd" is looking for the same movie...

I'm looking for a movie I believe was shot in Australia. The basic plot is some bank robbers wearing animal masks have kidnapped a teacher (or nanny?) and about 10 children of various ages. The location seems to be an undeveloped Australian area and animals such as kangaroos are seen in several shots. At one point, the children take refuge with an old couple but are surprised and recaptured by the robbers. Later, the children and their teacher are being pursued and they escape by swimming underwater for some time. At the movie's conclusion, the group of children TRAP and kill the bank robbers! I was about 16 when I saw this and I thought it was an awesome movie. I saw this broadcast on American TV sometime in the mid-to-late 1980s, probably no later than 1988, perhaps as early as 1986. I have fruitlessly searched all over the Internet and today did a keyword plot search on IMDB for everything marked Australia and found nothing. Any help appreciated. --Todd
