Today, pupils from Nursery through to Year 6 have welcomed parents into school for their Learning Exchange, a wonderful opportunity for the girls to showcase their work this academic year, to their parents.
Mrs Bains introduced the Learning Exchange into AESG to help the students to take ownership of their own learning and to support the girls in demonstrating the attributes of the Learner Profile: Collaboration, creativity, communication, curiosity, responsibility, reflection, resourcefulness and resilience. It’s been the most lovely afternoon, as the girls proudly took their parents through their books, folders, showed them the classroom and corridor displays (that includes their work) as well as sharing work on Seesaw.
