Welcome Year 9! For our next two lessons we will be continuing our unit of work: The Movement of People. Lesson One and Two were spent with Mr McDonald, investigating the main features of slavery and the movement of people to the Americas. In the next two lessons we will investigate the experiences of convicts and free settlers and their movement to Australia. At the top of the page you will find the buttons for the next two lessons. All the work/instructions you are required to do can be found on those pages. If you need help we will be available. Good Luck, Miss Kaye
