Congratulations to our two Year 7 classes and their teachers, Mrs Austin and Mr and Mrs Burke, on their very successful Expo held today. The Expo is the culminating activity in their unit of work studying the cultural influences from other countries on Australia. Students selected their countries based on a survey of countries of origin of families of Year 7 students. There were 12 stalls representing India, South Africa, Scotland, England, Russia, Vietnam, Iceland, Denmark, New Zealand, the Philippines, Italy and Germany. Students had researched many aspects of their chosen countries and were able to answer a variety of questions on areas such as government, traditional foods and dance, significant landmarks, topographical features and climate, religion, etc. Parents, children and school staff were very impressed by the knowledge, effort and enthusiasm of the students as they entertained us with this wonderful showcase of learning.
