One of the exciting upcoming projects is working in collaboration with the local studies section at Campbelltown Library. We are assisting the Library in collecting photographs and material which depict the ways COVID-19 has affected our local area. This material will be kept for future historians writing about COVID in our area. Each student is taking photos of signs and sanitisers around the school and in the local community and filling out a template sheet recording provenance details about the source. They have spent their lunchtimes busily running around the school taking photos!

An exciting upcoming event is an author talk via Zoom next week (17 June) by Heather Morris, the author of The Tattooist of Auschwitz. This book is based on the true story of Lale Sokolov who was a prisoner at Auschwitz and was ordered to tattoo the identification numbers on fellow inmates. Heather will speak to the girls about how she researched the book and collected oral testimony from the protagonist of her book.

There are also a large number of history competitions on offer to the girls at present which can be worked on in History Club.
