Business & Humanities

This faculty has two distinct streams of subjects - Business and Humanities.

All students in Years 7 and 8 study the Humanities through a semester each of History and Geography, with Civics embedded into the units of work. In Years 9 to 12, a range of Business and Humanities electives are offered.

The study of Business and Humanities facilitates the development of knowledge, skills, attitude and values which enable students to participate as active and informed citizens in a democratic society within a global community.

Studying Business and Humanities subjects provides students with wonderful opportunities to experience subjects which have a genuine connectedness with the ‘real world’ through excursions, guest speakers and practical activities. For example; Senior Legal Studies participate in Mooting Competitions through Bond University and Year 9 and 10 Business Studies students, along with those studying Senior Economics participate virtually in the share market through the ASX Share Market Game. Additionally,  Geography students participate in excursions to gather information in the field, while History students explore local museums and are visited by guest speakers.
