The Humanities are a group of Subjects dedicated to understanding the functions and actions of societies past, present and future.  We also peer into the natural world, and seek to understand our place within it.

In the Humanities, we aim to foster a critical and questioning mind, analytical and evaluative skills, and the literacy used to convey our ideas and arguments.

Students who undertake the Humanities in its various forms study the Human and Natural environments, the Historical movements and decisions of people long gone, and critique our recent history so as to best see where we can go in our future.
