Year 7 Henderson History Unit

April 14, 2022

In Social Studies, Year 7 have been learning about the Henderson area before exploring Liston College’s history. Students looked back on the year of 1974, when the college was established, and were surprised how Liston has grown from its foundation students and few classrooms, to what it is today. They were tasked to write an acrostic poem about our school in general or a specific building. We’re so proud to share some of their literary creations.
