The theme of this year’s National History Challenge is ‘Contested Histories’. This competition is open to all years and can be either an individual or a group entry. Students have the opportunity to research any historical event/personality/debate that is ‘contested’ and present in a variety of platforms from videos, 3D models to essays. The closing date is 28 August and the winners receive medallions and prize money. There is also an opportunity to receive a ‘Young Historian’ trophy which is presented in Canberra (travel and accommodation provided). Please see the website for further details http://historychallenge.org.au/

For further assistance, please see Mr East or myself.
