G10 Personal Project

This year's Personal Projects by the Class of 2026 at Concordian have been nothing short of remarkable, with 47 students showcasing their creativity and passions across a wide spectrum of disciplines.

At the Personal Project Exhibition on March 21st, 2024 students displayed their work which encompassed a 9-month-long learning journey, connecting the summation of their MYP learning. The Grade 10 students’ projects ranged from robotics, coding and design to culinary science, pet care, fashion and ﬁlmmaking. There were even several live musical performances throughout the day!

This year, we had several stand out projects in terms of unique products and also in the way presenters were able to captivate visitors with their communication skills. According to the community’s votes, here are the winners:

Winning The Thomas Edison’s Legacy Prize for the most unique and outstanding product at the Exhibition was Ken. Ken created a sports recovery product to facilitate and enhance an athlete’s ability to return from injury.

Winners of The Taylor Swift Mastermind Prize for the best presentation of their process and learning were Otto and Henry. Otto created a fusion soap that used biochemistry to extract the cleansing and anti-bacterial elements of fruits. Henry coded and created a language-based application to support the developmental needs of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

And lastly, winning The Frida Kahlo Design Prize for the best booth design at the Exhibition was Praew. Praew upcycled fabrics to create her own fashion line, inspired by various decades of styles and looks.

Although we still await the ﬁnal marks from the IB, we are so proud of the progress that Grade 10 has made in their educational journey this year. Embarking on the year-long project was a distinct challenge and this cohort deﬁnitely stepped up to the plate.

As we celebrate the achievements of the Class of 2026, we are inspired by their ingenuity, creativity and commitment to making a positive impact on the world around them, true to the mission and vision of Concordian. Congratulations to these young innovators for their outstanding contributions to the Personal Project.

Sincerely,

Ms. Min, Ms. Rachel, and Ms. Diane
