Geography allows students to develop an understanding of and an interest in the interaction of the physical and human environments. Students will develop geographic knowledge, understanding, skills, values and attitudes in order to engage in the community as informed and active citizens. The syllabus has two key dimensions that form the basis for the study of all content in Geography: the spatial dimension – where things are and why they are there, the ecological dimension – how humans interact with environments.
