Year 9 geography
In Year 9, learners study biomes and food security and the geographies of interconnections. They examine the world's biomes, how people have altered them to produce food, and the challenges of feeding a growing population sustainably. They also investigate how people are connected to places through trade, travel, technology and production, and the consequences of these connections.
