“Defining Moments”: Women
Women who made a difference to their families or communities by taking decisive actions which changed the course of their lives or the lives of others.

Tell us why you think these women’s accomplishments should be recorded but don’t just narrate the story of their lives. Show us the significance of what they have achieved for their communities or for Australia. Why did such star quality go unnoticed and unrecorded? Dig deeply in both primary and secondary sources and give evidence of your analytical and detective skills. Write beautifully about these wonderful hidden women stars so that we too can celebrate them and rejoice in their achievements.
