Senior School Exhibition! :)

What is the PYP Exhibition?quotes-18he7ck[1]

‘In the final year of the IB program, students participate in a culminating project known as the Exhibition. Students are required to engage in a collaborative, transdisciplinary inquiry process that involves them in identifying, investigating and offering solutions to real life issues.

Through this process students will also manage their time, research, proactivelty work with mentors, take action, communicate their findings, assess their tasks and celebrate their learning with each other and the broader school and IB community.’ Making the PYP Happen

The Exhibition is a large version of every unit of inquiry our students participate in from Prep through to Year 5/6. Our hope is that they display all of the skills, attitudes, attributes and actions that we have been developing over their time at Kunyung and have a chance to present this deep learning to the rest of the community.

The THEME for this year’s Exhibition is……

InquirySHARING THE PLANET

An inquiry into rights and responsibilities in the struggle to share finite resources with other people and with other living things; communities and the relationshipwithin and between them; access to equal opportunities; peace and conflict resolution.

The students will soon be discussing what this statement actually means to them, what it could mean, what questions, interests, provocations come from this theme.

They will then choose an area of authentic interest to them and begin their inquiry.

This is where you could assist us!

We are looking for mentors to work with a small group of 2-3 students and support them with ways to collect their information, interpret it, present it and assist them with any issues or problems that may arise!

In the next couple of weeks we will publish the full range of inquiries that the students have chosen to focus on for their Exhibition. If any of the areas is also an interest to you OR you would like to assist a group regardless of the area for inquiry- we would love to have you on board!

Please contact me on jackson.kim.k@edumail.vic.gov.au and I will answer any questions you may have! You may want to find out more about it ASAP or you may wish to wait for areas of inquiry to be published…..either way is fine with us!

Cheers

Assistant Principal
