Year 2 Curiosity

The students enjoyed linking their Curiosity unit, 'Sustaining our Earth's Natural Resources,' and Reconciliation Week. They applied their understanding of some of the sustainable practices of our First Nation's People. Students recognised the importance of understanding and respecting cultural values and practices. They learnt that there is a lot we can learn from Australia's first scientists and the way Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people work with the land and respect the environment. Students explored issues around sustainability and created posters to educate others about the problems and some solutions.
