I would like to thank the many students, parents, friends and family members who attended our inaugural HSC Showcase night this week. It was amazing to see the dedication and skillful projects that our Year 12 students had created.
As I have mentioned in this newsletter in the past, our HSC Showcase night was similar to Expression, but focused on Year 12 students only this year.
Most HSC projects take a full year to develop. They require planning and the development of new skills. They involve multiple loops of feedback from their teachers, and often students don’t love hearing that their project could be better if they were prepared to change something. Frequently the support of family and friends is crucial. As a teacher who has helped to guide many HSC projects over the years, I am convinced that completing a HSC project provides some of the most authentic and real-world learning experiences students complete during their whole schooling career.
We are currently planning how we can celebrate the projects that students in Years 7 to 11 complete, by holding an event in Term 4. Hopefully we can release details regarding this shortly.
