At Brentwood Primary School, we understand the vital role that Humanities and Social Sciences (HASS) play in shaping our students’ understanding of the world and their place in it. Our HASS curriculum is designed to be relevant and purposeful, ensuring that students gain a deep appreciation for history, geography, civics, and economics.
We are proud of our strong connections with Aboriginal culture, which enrich our HASS program and provide students with a profound respect for the traditions and contributions of the First Nations people. Our proximity to Blue Gum Lake offers a unique advantage, allowing us to extend our classroom into this natural environment. Here, students engage in hands-on learning experiences that deepen their connection to the land and its history.
Our commitment to celebrating significant events, such as ANZAC Day, NAIDOC Week, Harmony Day, and more, ensures that students recognise and value important cultural and historical milestones. These celebrations foster a sense of community and inclusiveness, highlighting the diversity within our school.
At Brentwood Primary School, we strive to make HASS meaningful and engaging, preparing our students to become informed, active, and responsible citizens. Through our comprehensive approach, we equip them with the knowledge and skills necessary for their future roles in a global society.
