The HSC: Not just exams, performances and art works.

HSC Examinations and just around the corner, but final year projects have already been submitted. HSC research projects are completed by thousands of HSC students in subjects like Society and Culture and Extension History each year. These projects encourage students to deeply engage with topics of history and culture, and require final year HSC students to explore their curiosity and challenge themselves academically.

Ku-ring-g*i High School students Bodhi and Arthur have just completed their projects into the adaptation of Japanese art and story telling into Western entertainment industries, and what this means to both distinctive cultures for the future. Fueled by personal interests in Anime and story telling, both students explored the complexities of changing cultural 'norms', popular entertainment media services, and emerging new art forms and cultural transmissions.

History student Oliver chose to focus his research on the 'construction' of historical narratives of Central Africa. Focussing on Colonial and Neo-Colonial Congo, Oliver concluded that history itself is often an ideologically driven construct with significant consequences that lead well beyond the histories they create.

Each project is thoroughly researched over countless hours and is testament to each student's commitment, diligence and passion. Above all else there is a curiosity to know more and explore answers to the questions of 'why?' and 'what next?' The exams may be a month away, but some very hard work has already been submitted. Well done, and congratulations to all.
