It seems as though every project we do focuses a lot more on the socials side of humanities compared to the English side of it. This project was going to be no different, but because of the extra week off we got after winter break, our project focused solely on English. Specifically, on poetry, songs, […]

Hiroshima and The Weight of Morals
The Winter Exhibition has come and gone once again and with it, our main project for the semester. Based on my previous blog posts you could probably come to the conclusion that we were focusing on Hiroshima, or more specifically the bomb that was used to destroy it. However, that’s not really the full extent […]
Is Hiroshima Still Relevant Today?
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 […]
How the Airplane Changed the World
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 […]
We The People
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. As you may have already been able to tell by my previous couple of posts, this project came in the wake of the Canadian federal election that had taken […]
A Party for the People

The Issue With Election Ridings
The 2021 Canadian Federal election has just concluded with the Liberals winning another minority government. In fact, when you look at how many ridings they ended up winning, I wouldn’t be surprised if your would come to the conclusion that they had won by at least a bit more of the votes than then the […]
The Heart of the Community Never Changes
Hey guys, it’s been a while since I did one of these posts wrapping up our most recent project but after the weeks of the smaller posts giving you a peek at what we’ve been doing, I’m finally here to reflect. Now, as you could have probably deciphered from the last few posts, our most […]
Games of Our Childhood
Hello you beautiful people, it has been another week of the year end grind and I come to you with my thoughts on games from the 50’s vs. present day. For some context, as we reached the end of our unit on Canada in the 1950’s, Ms.Maxwell decided that we would take a look at […]
The American Influence
So as many if you will probably know, Eurovision just finished a bout a week ago with Italy taking the win. There were some great performances like the ones from the Ukraine and Iceland and some that you wonder how they got to the finals in the first place. And as always, the UK got […]
