On Wednesday 29th July, our Year 7 and 8 Advanced Learning Program (ALP) students presented their TED Ed Talks and presentations about their learning to an audience of family and friends.We are so proud of our many students who challenged themselves to get up in front of an audience on stage in our new Performing Arts Centre and share what they have learned about something they are passionate about. We listened to speakers, watched animations, engaged in Keynotes and power points and rejoiced when students realised that what they once thought was unattainable became a reality.Students presented on a huge range of topics such as whether we should bring back the woolly mammoth and what it might be able to do to assist climate change, how we see colours differently, how gaming can improve our abilities and skills in other areas, Norse gods and their impact on history or the impact of planes on the course of World War Two.

Our students have the opportunity to be featured on the TED Ed YouTube channel in the future, so stay tuned for updates on this.Congratulations to all of our Year 7 and 8 ALP students on a wonderful evening of entertainment and education. Your talks and presentations were engaging, interesting and showed us all that the future is in wonderful hands.
