WHOLE SCHOOL MEETING –
THE BIG IDEA: VISION AND VALUES IN 2016 SATURDAY 27TH FEBRUARY, 2 – 4PM
CHILDCARE PROVIDED
This is a very important meeting, an opportunity for as many parents as possible to attend and hear about the focus of Kindlehill School in 2016. We encourage parents to be informed about the vision and direction for 2016 and to participate wherever they are interested and able.
Good Neighbours – this is the “Big Idea” for the Kindlehill school year in 2016 . Good as in (Global perspectives, Opening windows to Opportunities for Doing). There will be explorations from kindy to high school around this central theme with a focus on getting to know some of our neighbours near and far, and being active in our connection with them.
FOCUS AREAS – GOOD NEIGHBOURS
Songlines – a living narrative of our nation (drawn fro Naidoc 2016)
Sustainability – Connecting kids with creeks and catchments (projects with BMCC – bioblitz, streamwatch, bushtrackers)
Neighbours in the Asia – Pacific – curriculum choices by class through the year as well as whole school supporting fundraising for projects in Vanuatu, where class 9/10 will visit later in the year.
As you will see from the term 1 calendar we are making a solid start to the year.
