Inquiry (History, Science, Geography and Civics and Citizenship)

Quick Links

Other areas of the curriculum are covered using an integrated inquiry approach. We take a big picture approach to create Inquiry units of work based around big ideas and themes relevant to our students’ lives, the world around them and their developing sense of their place as empowered, active citizens. Students develop research skills, consult with experts in their field and participate in incursions and excursions. Student voice and authentic audiences for them to present their new learning to are key to helping our students engage with our Inquiry units.
