WELCOME MESSAGE FROM PYP COORDINATORS
2021 Year 6 Exhibition 24th November
The 2021 Exhibition was presented in an online format for the first time. Due to the covid restrictions, the Year 6 students had to modify their learning and showcase this through a specialised website. Although, this year’s exhibition presented many challenges, the students and teachers involved did an excellent job adjusting to the everchanging landscape. The transdisciplinary theme for this year’s exhibition was “How the World Works”. The central idea was “Hope Leads to Innovation”.
The Year 6 students had to identify a global issue they are passionate about and link this to the concept of “Hope”. The inquiry into an innovation involved detailed research, collection of primary and secondary data, creative writing piece, creative arts piece, group collaboration, social action and a performance presentation. Each of these elements were photographed or filmed and added to the exhibition website.
The exhibition journey was enriching for everyone involved. The resilience and flexibility shown during exhibition by the students and teachers was inspiring. Their learning and passion to create positive change in our community and the wider community was very rewarding to witness.
The Year 5/6 Teachers are still uploading student work and the performance groups. The Year 6 parents will have access to the website ASAP and we will post the link to the website in next week’s newsletter for the rest of the school community.
Year 5 Mini Exhibition 19th November
The Year 5 students used key concepts to inquire into how 'initiative leads to scientific discoveries'. They identified a global issue that concerned them and designed an invention that would help solve this issue.
Students also performed a fabulous song about how science is real and its impact on the world. Students from Kinder to Year 6 had an opportunity to visit the Year 5 Mini Exhibition and ask burning questions.
As a school community, we have been amazed by the student’s commitment and energy towards their Mini Exhibition
