What's Been Happening in Inquiry This Term?
Students have been busy in Inquiry this term, studying everything from Physical and Chemical Science to Geography, History and Economics. Our Inquiry program provides both bredth and depth within these subject areas and offers students the opportunity for hands-on learning and delving deeper into areas of interest. Students are suported to ask questions to futher their understanding and provide a starting point for additional research. They have the opportunity to work collaboratively, building their capacity to work with a diverse range of classmates. Each unit culminates with presentation of the student's work.
Another significant component of Inquiry is the focus it provides on the Habits of Mind. These are an identified set of 16 problem solving, life related skills necessary to effectively operate in society.
