I am a year 10 student at Tauranga Boys' College. For the last 2 years, I have been a part of the Inquiry Programe which focuses on project based, self driven learning. Being a part of this stream has helped me both in my education, and outside of school. This is my last Inquiry, my whakamutunga. I want to pursue my favourite part of the Inquiry process; the expert interviews. This experience has been amazing and I hope I can leave my impact in the Inquiry classroom. To see my past Inquiries and to find out more about the Inquiry
