The Australian History Competition

We had 80 of our Year 8 students participate in the Australian History Competition earlier this year.  The competition was prepared by the History Teachers’ Association of Australia. The primary goal was to provide an interesting and challenging competition for students. The Year 8 paper was broadly based on the Australian Curriculum: History for year 8. It provided a quality resource that demonstrated approaches to the assessment of knowledge, skills and understandings. The focus is on testing interpretation and analysis rather than prior knowledge.

Congratulations to the following students for their outstanding results:
