Year 10 Social Studies

Course Description

Teacher in Charge:

Social Studies allows our students to explore all realms of human interaction, be it with each other or the environment. We look at the past and how that has influenced our present, and for ways that can better inform our future. 

Students will also develop the knowledge and skills that will enable them to:

Ø     Better understand, participate in and contribute to the local, national and global communities they live and work in.

Ø     Engage critically with societal issues.

Ø     Evaluate the sustainability of alternative social, economic, political and environmental practices. 

Contexts chosen for study have been drawn from past, present and future, as well as from places within and beyond Aotearoa New Zealand.
