What is Geography? 

Geography is the study of place. This includes the study of both natural and human environments, and how peoples’ behaviour impacts these environments.

This beginners-level course is on offer for the first time in 2023. Students will learn foundational skills and knowledge about Geography in a fun and engaging way.

Topics of study could include:

  • Sustainable Development Goals
  • Urbanisation and megacities
  • Natural geography such as weather, natural disasters
  • The study of unique landforms such as the Grand Canyon
  • Auckland as our home: natural geography, population demographics and urban issues

There will also be field trips – these are essential when studying Geography.
