Our Projects

2021 Projects

Welcome!

The personal project is the culmination of the MYP years, where students explore an area of personal interest from the beginning of the school year. This is an opportunity to consolidate their learning and develop important skills they’ll need in both further education and life beyond the classroom.

On March 18th 2021 we commemorate one year being in distance learning. This experience has come with many challenges for all of us to overcome. The COVID-19 pandemic has shaken our routines and has made us re-think and re-design many of our day to day activities. Now more than ever, students have demonstrated their skills and resiliency as they grow to become principled lifelong learners.

We want to invite all of the Westhill community to join the power of learning. Explore through the projects and please leave your feedback in the contact form.
