Level 3 History Box Incursion
On Thursday 20th November, our Level 3 students participated in the History Box incursion. Students were invited to step back in time and explore the complex and significant events that shaped Australia between 1750 and 1800. Students examined the arrival of the First Fleet, early years of colonisation and the vastly different experiences and perspectives of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples and the new arrivals.
Students were able to develop a deeper understanding of the causes and consequences of early colonisation on the people, culture and environment.
