Extended Project Qualification Evening

The Lower Sixth’s Extended Project journey culminated in a fantastic Presentation Evening, during which the students showcased their passion and knowledge for the wide-ranging projects they have considered this year.

Each and every one rose to the somewhat nerve-wracking challenge of explaining their subject matter and project journey and they confidently answered a variety of probing questions from parents, staff, their peers, and prospective students. They offered thought-provoking and engaging answers, impressing every member of the audience with their expertise, eloquence and enthusiasm for their topic. And what a range of topics! From creating a Rubik’s cube solver built of Lego or learning how to play the Dhol from scratch, to whether peace or war has had more effect on human inventiveness, could humans colonise another planet by 2050 and should AI replace juries in a court of law… and indeed, everything in between!

The students did an outstanding job and they should be rightly proud of both their performance at the evening and the projects themselves.
