In SCIL this term, Year 5 have been learning about how the expansion of Sydney’s urban areas have impacted the local environment. Part of these lessons included asking students to design and develop their own cityscape, taking into account how the natural features of a site can be incorporated into a new development. 5S worked together to create their own miniature city. Students took on the roles of town planners, developers and landscapers. Careful consideration was given to where buildings were placed and how could people gain access to both work and leisure facilities. Education for the city was a priority! They decided that this new city should have its very own Thomas Hassall Anglican College for students to attend. Looks like our new sister school is in the making.
