As part of our Humanities offerings at Oxley, selected students from Years 7 to10 participated in the 2022 Australian Geography and History Competitions. Almost 150,000 students across Australia took part in the competitions this year. At Oxley, 43 students participated in the Geography competition during Term 1, while 21 students took part in the History competition, which took place just before examination week. This year, our students have achieved some remarkable results, with over two-thirds of participants achieving at least a credit result. Of special mention are the following expert geographers and historians.
