L2 Classical Studies

In Classical Studies students investigate aspects of the ancient world. This involves studies within several disciplines including history, art history, literature and drama. 

This course covers aspects of the ancient civilisations of Greece and Rome. Students are encouraged to think critically, to analyse material and to use evidence to present an argument. Students will investigate the tragedies of the Greek playwright Sophocles; the sculpture and architecture of Athens during the fifth century B.C.; and the political life of ancient Rome during the time of Cicero and Caesar.

This course will be assessed to Classical Studies Achievement Standards. Students will have the opportunity to gain up to 24 credits at L2.
