Year 7
The Shipwreck Project
What you will learn
Imagine this…
You are on your dream holiday, a luxury cruise. One night, while you are fast asleep in your cabin, the alarms bells start to ring. You rush outside to find that the ship is sinking. You just have time to jump into the last lifeboat. After days of being adrift at sea, you and the other 5 people in your lifeboat run aground on a desert island.
In this project you will work in a small group where you will make decisions about what is right and wrong, about leadership and survival in a group on your desert island.
