Students learn about past events, experiences, and actions, and their changing interpretation over time, to understand about the past, the present, and possible futures.
Through social inquiry, students ask questions, gather information, and examine the background to important societal ideas and events, explore and analyse values and perspectives relating to these ideas and events; and develop understandings about issues and the ways that people (themselves and others) make decisions and participate in social action.
People remember and record the past in different ways.
People pass on and sustain culture and heritage for different reasons and this has consequences on people.
