SCHOOL EXCURSION PROGRAMS FOR SECONDARY
Secondary school excursion programs at Q Station provide engaging learning experiences in an ever-evolving historically and geographically significant context. The importance of an educational excursion at Q Station includes the themes of life and death, sickness and health, class, gender, race, hopes and fears all come into focus in the amazing natural landscape of North Head.
Activities are designed to develop critical, creative and reflective thinking skills. Exploration of the natural and built environment, handling artefacts, interacting with primary sources and hearing stories fosters empathy with the past and ongoing consideration of how the site has been valued by different constituencies throughout its history. From curricular-aligned programs to two-day art or writing retreats with students housed in the former Doctors & Nurses Quarters, Q Station has so much to offer!
All of our school excursion education programs have significant links to the NSW and Australian National Curriculum across multiple subject areas but they are also customisable for particular interests or projects. Contact our Education Program Manager about your goals for the visit.
