Inspiring side

Inquirers

We nurture our curiosity, developing skills for inquiry and research. We know how to learn independently and with others. We learn with enthusiasm and sustain our love of learning throughout life.

Knowledgeable

We develop and use conceptual understanding, exploring knowledge across a range of disciplines. We engage with issues and ideas that have local and global significance.

Thinkers

We use critical and creative thinking skills to analyse and take responsible action on complex problems. We exercise initiative in making reasoned, ethical decisions.

Communicators

We express ourselves confidently and creatively in more than one language and in many ways. We collaborate effectively, listening carefully to the perspectives of other individuals and groups.

Principled

We act with integrity and honesty, with a strong sense of fairness and justice, and with respect for the dignity and rights of people everywhere. We take responsibility for our actions and their consequences.

Open-minded

We critically appreciate our own cultures and personal histories, as well as the values and traditions of others. We seek and evaluate a range of points of view, and we are willing to grow from the experience.

Caring

We show empathy, compassion and respect. We have a commitment to service, and we act to make a positive difference in the lives of others and in the world around us.

Risk-takers

We approach uncertainty with forethought and determination; we work independently and cooperatively to explore new ideas and innovative strategies. We are resourceful and resilient in the face of challenges and change.

Balanced

We understand the importance of balancing different aspects of our lives—intellectual, physical, spiritual and emotional—to achieve well-being for ourselves and others. We recognize our interdependence with other people and with the world in which we live.

Reflective

We thoughtfully consider the world and our own ideas and experience. We work to understand our strengths and weaknesses in order to support our learning and personal development.

Opening Message from our PYP Coordinators : ACTION IN THE PYP

To our Holy Trinity Community,

Welcome to our Term 2 edition of 'Inspiring Connections Magazine'. This is a wonderful platform to share with you some of the amazing learning that has been occuring inside the 'Unit of Inquiry' from ELC to Year 6. The UOI Overviews have been published at the top of each grade's article. Our hope is that this will assist you to see, through a snapshot, the connection between the planned learning and what occurs in the classrooms and beyond.

ACTION IN THE PYP

Have you wondered what action might look like for our PYP learners? As teachers, we often deliberate over how we capture our students’ actions and then further develop their thinking to invite more action?

What is action like?

When learning is meaningful and relevant, students take action to bring about change. Action might come in different forms in response to planned or unplanned learning, challenges and opportunities that students encounter. It can come in the form of participation, advocacy, social justice, social entrepreneurship or lifestyle choices.

Let's take a closer look at PARTICIPATION.

Warm wishes,

Katie and Brendon
