Australian Geography Competition

Fort Street High School has a number of outstanding Geography students, many of whom go on to achieve highly in the HSC. To continue to encourage success in Geography and reward student achievement Fort Street participates each year in the Australian Geography Competition. Winners of the competition have the opportunity to represent Australia at the International Geography Olympiad. Last year, the Australian team took out second place. In the past, we have had a Fort Street student participate in the team in Mexico. This year the Olympiad will be held in Ireland. 

The competition will take place in Term 2, Week 3 – on Monday 12th May. Fort Street High School and the Social Sciences faculty invites and encourages all students to enter. However, participation in this event is not compulsory.
