“It is a testament to each of the groups that they received a call back for round 3 interviews and this is an indication of the high standard of each of the projects. We are very proud of the students and I have no doubt that these students will use this experience to further develop their knowledge and understanding of their areas of interest. The school has a rich tradition of engaging in scientific enquiry and study, and these students are advancing that tradition. We hope and trust that they will continue this work in the months and years ahead,” he said.placeholder image
