History Teachers' Association of NSW

The History Teachers' Association of NSW (HTANSW) seeks to promote the study and teaching of History and to provide professional support for those working in the area of History Education. Formed in 1954 by Renée Fauvette Erdos (1911-1997), HTANSW grew quickly, evolving our operations to reflect changes in pedagogy, teaching and learning and the use of technology.
