Year 9 

Urban Engagement Program 

'Whitten Oval'

In line with our 2025 theme, Be Bold, Year 9H students Harry, Nic, Dante, and Adam have truly embodied the spirit of exploration and creativity. As part of the Year 9 Urban Engagement program, these students meticulously researched the history and significance of Whitten Oval for the “The Secret Life of Melbourne” video task.

During the Urban Engagement program, students form groups to work on passion project videos, each exploring different facets of Melbourne. Under the guidance of our Urban Engagement program Lead, Ms. Bella Cavedon, Harry, Nic, Dante, and Adam's mission was to create an engaging and informative video that would captivate their families and friends during the celebratory evening at the program’s conclusion. Their curiosity and dedication have culminated in one of the most recent group videos, showcasing a new side of Melbourne.
