After school on Monday 8 November, the Year 13 EPQ (Extended Project Qualifications) students gave their presentations in the EAB. This event marked the culmination of their year-long research projects. The students have created their own titles on a topic of their choosing and have spent the past year researching and writing an extended essay or creating artefacts such as artworks or performances. The presentations were given in the style of a ‘marketplace’ where each student created their own stand and discussed their work with the invited audience of teachers, students and parents.
Topic titles:
