Making learning practical and relevant!

We strive to create an environment that engages learners, fosters creativity and resilience, cultivates empathy and encourages creativity. Research shows that learning happens best when it is done in a way that is practical, relevant, and engaging - rather than theoretical and decontextualised - and that learning happens everywhere, anytime.

Today, the Year 5 students were weighing in grams and then converting the weights into fractions of kg, grams and kilograms, and kilograms as decimals. They then worked in small groups to investigate the distance of each planet from the sun. They used the scale 10,000,000km in real life represented by 1cm in our models.
