I'm guessing something to do with memories or something to do with how individuals can enrich or challenge a community.

You're welcomeI just realised that i've been overlooking the rubric every time I looked at the syllabus hahah
I was expecting dot points, that's why I couldn't find it T_T
But thanks for the CSU link, it really helps

I have a resources dump for you guys tomorrow (essays written in exams), but I just gotta get clearance . These exemplar essays are from students who attend a top 20 school. (Not saying which one )

People tend to stress way too much about the question.
Yes you have to respond well with the question. But you can go against what the question is saying... Most of the high scoring essays are those that interpreted and responded to the question in a distinctive way. For example the question with places a few years ago? A few of the published exemplars argued that a sense of belonging to community, family etc. was much more important and focused on that instead.
If you think on your feet just a little instead of relying wholly on your prepared essay you can generally work your way around any question as long as you make sure you actually engage with it rather than superficially skim it in your introductory paragraph. Most of the themes tend to interlink anyway....

Didn't even need to think about it... it was just blatantly easy...

hahahaha
A few people have said the overall focus could be something relating to current situation in Australia, eg refugee/asylum seekers. I don't really know much but I guess it's a possibility, it would fit with belonging
I will die if they ask this. I will also die if they ask for 2 related text. Or specify the poem.

Woah... that's a cool idea. I can definitely see something about asylum seekers coming up in Section 1 of Belonging as a newspaper article or something.
OT: It might actually phrased in terms of barriers to belonging.

That would be a really great question.

I'm doing The Crucible and that would be so perfect.
Not for Peter Skryznecki! He doesn't belong to anyone it seems! He alienates himself to a degree
