Join us for this exciting site visit and chance to experience teaching & learning in action, demonstrating the merging of thinking, space and change.
In 2015, faced with the challenge of a new building to be constructed with purpose built classrooms designed for an open plan flexible layout, Sue Bennett, Principal, Bellevue Hill PS was faced with the challenge of developing the capacity of teachers to teach in these open spaces. Hear her story about the use of transformational and distributed leadership to empower her staff, to not only teach in teams across a grade but learn how leadership has been developed amongst teachers to inspire and guide others as well.
In 2017, all 24 classes moved into the new purpose built classrooms and the story continues about how teachers are adapting to this challenge.
We will get the opportunity to hear from:
• Emma Marshall from New Learning Environments, as to why!
• Sue Bennett, principal, as to how!
• Teachers and students as to now!
Light refreshments will be served after the presentations and tour, enabling us to reflect and discuss observations and what we can each take away.
See attached flier for sharing and distribution.
