Last Wednesday, the Holy Trinity community celebrated the culmination of many weeks of inquiry, research and collaboration by our wonderful Year 6 students through the PYP Exhibition. The theme this year was 'Where we are in Place and Time' with central idea of: Humans use inspiration and knowledge to bring about purposeful change. This student-created central idea was a reflection of the wider range of issues the students chose to inquire into which included: prothestics; equality for people with disabilities; cancer; refugees, to name a few.

The Exhibition is an integral part of our teaching and learning program and it provides students with an opportunity to demonstrate the skills, knowledge and attitudes they have developed throughout their primary school years. These attributes were clearly on display last Wednesday as the Year 6 students presented their inquiries to their parents, their peers, the wider school community and special guests. Our Year 6 students displayed passion and maturity beyond their years and presented their research and responded to questions confidently and articulately.

Our PYP Exhibition is a whole school celebration and thanks must go to all our teaching staff who have worked alongside our Year 6 students both this year and in years gone by. Thank you to all the specialist teaching staff for your ongoing support. Thank you to all the staff mentors for dedicating your time each week to support the students. Special thanks to our Year 6 class teachers Ms Thompson-Lang, Mr Pye, Mrs Small, Mrs Everding and Ms Smith for their tireless efforts and commitment to providing students with as many opportunities to explore important issues and to think deeply about what matters to them. Finally, thank you to our open-minded, knowledgeable and reflective Year 6 students—Holy Trinity's 2018 PYP Exhibition was a great success and enjoyed by all due to your hard work, perseverance and engaging manner.
