Year 9 City Discovery Program

Welcome to the City Discovery Program 2017

Melbourne is a big city.  In fact, it’s one of the biggest (geographically) in the world and the fastest growing city in Australia.  On top of that, it’s regularly voted as one of the most ‘liveable’ cities in the world.  However, what makes a great city?  What do the people who live and work in Melbourne think about their city?  How can we improve the city and plan for the future? We will discover this!

During week 7 of Term 3, 28th August to 1st September, students will have the opportunity to explore our great city, Melbourne. There are a vast range of activities available in the inner Melbourne area. All Year 9s completed a preference sheet to determine which faculty area they wish to focus on that week. These elective activities will run on the Wednesday during Discovery week and the other 4 remaining days have been organised by myself and other teachers.

It is an exciting week of DISCOVERY and I am looking forward to it as I hope you all are.  Excursion forms have gone out to students via compass with the expectation that all forms and payments completed by the due date 13th August.

If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on 94332666.
