Aim

The aim of Geography 7–10 is to enable students to:

  • develop a sense of curiosity about the world and develop a lifelong interest in geography
  • think geographically by acquiring knowledge and understanding of the interrelationships between people, places and environments across a range of scales from local to global
  • work geographically by applying geographical inquiry skills and tools in a range of environments, including during fieldwork
  • participate as active, informed and responsible citizens.
