When: Friday 17 June from 10am – 2pm

Students: For Year 8 and 9 students who have a particular interest in history or who might benefit from a chance to visit CCCU and break down boundaries by working with new people and other schools.

Outcome: With the support of Christ Church ambassadors, students will produce an array of dynamic posters using collage, newspaper cut-outs and photos that will be displayed as part of our Diamond Jubilee celebration.

Teacher role: Teachers will play a supervisory role, ensuring that students are on their best behaviour and focused on the task at hand. The event will be led by academic and professional staff from CCCU.

Evaluation: The event will be evaluated by all students attending.

Practicalities: Students are invited to wear their own clothes to this event. For lunch they can either bring a packed lunch or bring money to purchase food in the food court.
