A Year of Distiction in Geography and History

Mr Adrian Brombal – Leader of Learning – HSIE

For the second consecutive year the College has entered Years 9 & 10 into the Australian Geography Competition which is a 40 question exam based on a series of map and geographical skills and completed across the entire country by roughly 50,000 students.

We had 19 High Distinctions across both year groups scoring within the top 10% of participants. In Year 9 the College had two students achieve in the top 1% of Year 9 – Thomas C and Jamie Q with Thomas achieving 1st place in Year 9 nationally.

The College’s long standing tradition of entering into the Australian History Competition also continued, a 50 question examination on Australian History completed by tens of thousands of students nationwide.

The College had 13 High Distinctions across Years 8, 9 and 10. These are outstanding results which are a testament to our talented boys who show a passion for the humanities as well as the effort of an incredibly dedicated HSIE team who support them.
