On March 21st, Year 10 History students will participate in an excursion to fulfill the compulsory field trip component of the course. As part of their current studies, they will visit the Sydney Jewish Museum in Darlinghurst. On the day of the excursion students will need to meet in the canteen by 8.00 am for roll call where they will be dispatched to the buses. The buses will be leaving school promptly at 8.30 am. Students will arrive at the Museum at approx. 9:30 am, where they will have a short recess at Green Park (there are no venues to purchase food, so all food and drinks required should be brought with you for morning tea). After recess, students will be taken on a detailed tour of the venue. After the tour is complete, the students will be taken to Green Park for lunch. There are no venues to purchase lunch, so students will need to bring all the food and drinks they require. Students should also bring sunscreen if it is a sunny day or wet weather protection if the forecast includes rain. At approximately 1:30 pm, the students will be loaded back onto the buses and return to school. Students will be dismissed on return to the school no earlier than 2:30 pm, and supervision will be available for those remaining until 3 pm. The cost of the excursion will be payable no later than the 10th of March. Please be advised that the content presented during this excursion may be sensitive, confronting, or thought-provoking. Students will engage with images, discussions, documents, artefacts, and presentations that explore the Holocaust and its lasting impact on the Jewish people. While this experience is designed to foster historical understanding, critical thinking, and empathy, we acknowledge that some students may find certain topics challenging. If you have any concerns or would like to discuss your child's participation, please contact the school. By providing consent for your child to attend, you acknowledge that they will be exposed to these themes as part of their educational experience.
