Crime Story Featured on Channel Nine's Today Show

Crime Story was recently featured on Channel Nine’s Today show for an exciting classroom incursion at Domremy College. Year 9 Critical Thinking and Philosophy students, along with Year 11 Legal Studies students, participated in an immersive crime scene investigation that turned their classroom into a crime-solving adventure.

The students were presented with two realistic crime scenes, packed with evidence that ranged from car parts and used bullets to electrical items and even a garbage bin full of potential clues. Many items contained hidden links to websites and film footage from the crime scenes, adding an extra layer of complexity to the investigation. Students were taught forensic techniques such as fingerprint testing and trace element swabbing, which they applied throughout the day.

The day pushed students to think critically, avoid bias, and ask the right questions, all while working through conflicting evidence and dead ends. By the end of the session, students presented well-reasoned theories, showcasing their teamwork, resilience, and problem-solving skills. The event highlighted the importance of transferable skills, with many students noting how they could apply this new way of thinking to other subjects.

The incursion, filmed by Channel Nine, aired as part of a segment on Today. The entire experience left students buzzing with excitement, and it was clear the hands-on approach to learning made a lasting impact.
