Lifestyles Inquiry in Term 4

This term our inquiry focus is Lifestyles. Our whole school is investigating the question 

 

Who am I? How does being healthy help me to flourish and make a difference in the world? 

 

Students at each level are exploring this through various hands-on experiences including our junior parish sports, triathlon, concert, camps and our swimming program. With the change in weather, it is a great opportunity to deepen students' understanding of the positive impacts of a healthy lifestyle and connect this to their mindset around learning. 

 

As well as our hands-on experiences students will engage in explicit social and emotional learning , writing, and faith lessons. We ask parents to discuss the opportunities that students will have this term and to encourage their children to try new things, take risks and move outside of their comfort zone. This along with our explicit learning will support students to build resilience and help them to grow and flourish in life and learning.
