History Matters
The students studying History have been able to produce some remarkable pieces of work this semester, so the faculty would like to showcase some of them here. Year 10’s have produced some interesting digital displays on World War 2 sites of commemoration.
Dunkirk - Ariella
Pearl Harbor - Will
Australian War Memorial - Caitlin
Shoes on the Danube - Centaine
Peace Memorial Park - Kiahni
Year 7 chose an ancient historical site, researched it to find answers to the question of what primary sources can tell us about the people who built the site and then created presentations to convey their understanding.
The Roman Forum - Eliana
Pompeii - Hudson
Ancient Greece - Riley
The Jerusalem Temple - Alice
Year 7 students have also learned about Ancient Egypt, and while they were learning from home, filmed the process of mummification.
Mummification - Jacob
How to make a mummy - Jesse
