Inquiry

This term in Inquiry, we are exploring the question, ‘How does where I live impact me?’ Learners will investigate this question through the lens of Global Goal 3, ‘Good Health and Wellbeing’, where they will analyse physical, social and emotional factors that contribute to overall health and wellbeing.Students have begun their learning by investigating the liveability of different locations across Melbourne, and the challenges and opportunities that can present. They will then expand their focus towards a global scale by exploring countries across the world. By the end of this unit, students will have attained a stronger understanding of how an individual’s place or country of residence can influence their health, education, and wellbeing.
