Term 3 Learning Showcase 

Each term, each class holds a Learning Showcase. It is a way for students to demonstrate what they have learned, showcase their skills, and share their inquiries with their family and friends.

The Learning Showcase provides students with an opportunity to take ownership of their learning, boost their confidence, improve their communication skills, and foster a sense of pride in their accomplishments. It also allows parents to gain insights into the students' progress, achievements and the learning environment.

Last week the Year 1, Year 2, Year 3 and Year 4 students showcased their work. She some of their work and photos from the showcases below:
