We would like to thank everyone for being a part of the ThinkQuest global community: Students - For your limitless creativity and innovation, which inspires us all. Teachers - For your passion in guiding students on their quest. Partners - For your unwavering support and evangelism.

The new History K–6 syllabus is to be implemented in 2016 with an option to introduce it in 2015.
The new syllabus has an increased emphasis on historical skills and concepts, and the use of primary and secondary resources. These are also relevant when using the current HSIE syllabus. To assist in bringing this focus to the current syllabus a range of resources are available. A selection of visual texts is located on the Board’s website. Also, the State Library of NSW has an excellent collection of resources, which will be invaluable in bringing History alive in the primary classroom. My Place for teachers.
