on Hey guys, it’s the end of yet another school year which means yet another year to reflect on and to share that reflection in a TPol. In fact this is my last TPol I will ever have to do! Sadly, that means that next year I will be consumed with preparing for a 30 minute… Continue Reading T-t-t-t-TPol’s!!!
on Hey guys, the final project of the year has finally come to a close which means it’s time for the final blog post of my grade 11 year. As always the last project was presented in the spring exhibition, which this year had both some great ideas and execution and some downfalls. But this is… Continue Reading The Local Crazy Ones
on Hey guys, it may come as a surprise to some of you but although most of what we do in Humanities falls under the umbrella of social studies, the course itself is supposed to be both socials and english.

Specifically, on poetry, songs,… Continue Reading Songs of the Soul

However, that’s not really the full extent… Continue Reading Hiroshima and The Weight of Morals
on I’m sure that the majority of you who are reading this have heard about Hiroshima, it was the first ever use of an atomic weapon on a population and the first time the world had ever witnessed such power. I’m also sure many of you have also read the book Hiroshima by John Hersey and… Continue Reading Is Hiroshima Still Relevant Today?
on Planes are not something one often thinks about in their day to day lives, they offer transportation around the world for both people and things and for many that is all the thought towards them that they deserve. Planes have become an everyday part of society, so much so that it’s almost impossible to imagine… Continue Reading How the Airplane Changed the World
on Hey guys, the first project of the year has just come to a close and as with every project comes reflection. This project is no exception.
