Year 12 Geography Explores Real World Sustainability
Our HSC Geography students recently embarked on an enriching fieldwork trip to Bellingen, Coffs Harbour, and surrounding areas, diving deep into the concepts of Global Sustainability and Rural-Urban Places.
In Bellingen, students analysed social, economic, and environmental changes, focusing on how the local council and community are adapting. They also experienced the natural beauty of Never Never Creek, gathering valuable firsthand observations.
A visit to the Coffs Harbour Bypass site provided insights into environmental remediation and the future of placemaking, a topic relevant to many Macleay residents.
A highlight of the trip was meeting Paul Shoker, a passionate second-generation banana farmer, who shared his expertise on the four pillars of sustainability and the impact of the bypass on his farm.
Mrs Tess Meehan and Mr Peter Hill were incredibly proud of the students' dedication and engagement throughout the trip. It's a privilege to provide these valuable learning experiences!
