The study of history enables students to understand various movements throughout time that have shaped and formed the world in which we live. It explores the influence of culture, religion, politics, economics, and other forces, largely from the emergence of written texts to the present time.
Studies in history include inquiry into the formation of Western civilization, as well as the formation and intersections of global civilizations. Getting to know who we and our global neighbours have been and where we have come from, is critical for developing a well-informed worldview, and considering how the past shapes our future.
