Hill : an area of land that is slightly raised and has sloping sides
Hills are a very recognizable landform. They look like little bumps on the earth’s surface! Hills are higher than their surroundings, but not as tall as mountains. Hills are known for their gradual sloping sides which make them easy to climb. They also have a summit or a high point. Hills come in a variety of sizes and forms. Some hills can be short and flat while others can be tall and round. Hills can even be man-made and are known as mounds.
Nuwarra is a Dharug Nation word meaning ‘near the top of a hill’. Our school is near the top of a hill and Nuwarra Road runs along the crest of that hill.
Hills can be formed in a few different ways. One example is through the process of erosion. When rock and soil is moved through erosion it will be deposited in another area and grow over time.
Other times erosion can happen by water currents. Once the water dries up, hills can be left. Also, the melting and shifting of glaciers can shift the ground enough that hills are created. One well known group of hills is Adelaide Hills in South Australia.
