Year 11 Foundation English Students Reflect on Identity and Belonging

Students engaged with a range of exhibits created by both recent and long-established immigrants, considering how elements such as language, clothing, family, and physical appearance shape individual identity. They also reflected on how these aspects are balanced alongside an Australian identity and sense of belonging.

Through guided activities, students applied their understanding and reflected on the ways different influences combine to form their own identities. The excursion provided a valuable insight into Australia’s multicultural identity and supported students in developing deeper personal and analytical understanding for their coursework.
