Spotlight on History

 

Welcome to Term 2 Humanities!  During Term 1 our Year 7 to 9 classes studied Civics and Citizenship. Some things our Year 7's enjoyed about last term were:

 

Creating values posters

Learning about Australian values and identity

Studying the timeline of Australia

Learning about the flags

Being a human timeline

Learning more about Australia

 

This term we are focussing on History. At Year 7 we will be learning about Ancient Rome and Ancient Australia. Our Year 8's are exploring Medieval Europe and our Year 9's focus on The Industrial Revolution, WWI and The Holocaust.

 

The skills our students are learning in History will pathway our students into History at Years 10, 11 and 12. Our Year 10 History class will be attending an excursion to the Holocaust Museum next Friday and we look forward to telling you about it in our next newsletter article.
