NCEA Level 3 Geography
Course Description
Teacher in Charge:
Geography encompasses the theme of understanding the relationships between people and the environment.
Students will explore how different processes interact and how they act at different rates.
Students are challenged to take greater responsibility for creating frameworks for their own learning (for example, when carrying out research) to apply more complex skills, to make connections between concepts, to appreciate different attitudes and values, and to make use of their own experiences.

If students have not studied L2 Geography they must seek approval from the HOD.

Disclaimer
Rosmini College's timetable is student-driven and a new timetable is generated each year based on student subject selection. Unfortunately, while we do our best to avoid them, timetabling clashes may still occur and a few students may be required to choose an alternative subject option.
The 2024 timetable, including the number of classes in each subject and staffing allocations, is created based on student selections made in 2023. Because of this, changing subjects at the beginning of 2024 may not be possible. Please, make your subject choices carefully.
