Year 11\u2019s English excursion into the city became a lively blend of research, discovery, and friendly competition. The day began at the State Library, where students explored the impressive reading rooms and learned essential research skills to support all their Stage 6 subjects. A highlight for one fortunate group was a rare behind\u2011the\u2011scenes visit to the Stacks, where they viewed an original 1630 map and manuscripts more than 250 years old; an unforgettable glimpse into history.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The adventure continued with a scavenger hunt that sent teams through the Mitchell Library\u2019s art and photography exhibitions and into the grandeur of the main reading room. From there, the hunt led them along Macquarie Street, past some of Sydney\u2019s most significant government buildings, before arriving at St Mary\u2019s Cathedral.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The final stop was the\u00a0Key Under the Mat<\/em>\u00a0exhibition at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. Here, students explored an interactive showcase of sustainability, upcycling, and innovative design, engaging with an exploratory artwork that challenged them to think creatively about the world around them.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It was a full and energetic day of learning, exploring, and teamwork, one that brought literature, history, art and the city itself to life for Year 11.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
