During a busy final few weeks in Term 3 at Marist School, students find themselves immersed in a flurry of exams and Advanced Placement tests. Yet, beyond filling in endless multiple-choice bubbles, it is often the remarkable class projects that embody the essence of the students’ learning in each subject.
