It’s all go in HASS this semester!

In Year 8 the students are taking a trip around the world and are looking at UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Then, they are going to advocate for their own favourite place to become a UNESCO World Heritage site.

The Year 9 students are examining food security and how innovation can improve crop yields. They will also be investigating the mystery surrounding why the bees are going missing!

In Year 10 students have just completed their test on the Murray Darling Basin where they were tasked with water management and stakeholder management. In doing so, trying to solve one of the trickiest issues facing Australia today, and into the future. 

A final note regarding our 9/10 electives. Our business studies elective classes have recently learnt the ‘supply and demand curve dance.’ Any parents who have students in those classes should definitely ask for a demonstration. The students in the Law elective are polishing up on their precedents preparing for Mock Trial. Finally, the World in Conflict elective has just finished their Gapminder quiz competition on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
