Learning and Teaching

The Science of Learning Parent Session
On Wednesday October 15th at 6:45pm we will meet in the school Library for our second Science of Learning Parent Information Session.
If you did not attend the first session, you are still welcome to attend Session 2.
This information from Neuroscientist Dr Jared Cooney Horvath with focus on: Understanding the three keys to learning and memory.
The parents who attended our first session had positive feedback about the information they were presented with and appreciated the opportunity to discuss this with others.
Learning Walks
This term we will offer learning walks to our parents. Learning Walks provide you with an opportunity to see our classes in real time. You will be in a small group as you tour around classrooms. You will be with a learning leader who can answer questions and offer insights into our learning and teaching.
