Dear Parents,

I am so proud this week of our Grade 10 students, who have produced the most impressive Personal Projects. There are simply too many students to mention by name, but I was so pleased with each and every one, as they all showed ingenuity, imagination, innovation and reflection. Projects ranged from websites on fitness, in-depth guidance on ADHD, braille on a piano keyboard and sheet music to allow blind people to learn the piano, a natural hand sanitizer, desserts for those with eating disorders, origami to elicit energy saving, and even a telescope. Learning goals and also the IB ‘Approaches to Learning’ skills were evident throughout. I would like to thank all parents who supported the Exhibition, our PP supervisors and particularly Ms Sandy as MYP Coordinator and Ms Sangita as Personal Project Coordinator. Ms Amanda and I will be talking to the students soon about the wider impact of their projects, beyond school, because we think that these brilliant ideas can lead to even greater impact.
