Year 9 Commerce Excursion
As part of their study of Law, Society and Political Involvement, Year 9 Commerce attended an excursion to NSW Parliament and the Sydney Police and Justice Museum. At Parliament House, the students met Sally Quinnell, local Member for Camden. The students learnt about how the Legislative Assembly operates, and participated in a mock debate on a proposed law.
At the Police and Justice Museum, the students learnt about the court structure and layout, viewed forensic evidence from historical crimes, and acted as the detectives in a crime that took ten years to solve. Finally the students participated in a mock criminal trial, giving them an excellent understanding of how courts work.
