Collaborative Learning 

The children in the Early Learning Centre are currently engaged in collaborative projects to prepare for their end of year ‘Celebration of Learning’. Over recent weeks, the children have been reflecting on their year, brainstorming ideas, developing storylines, selecting songs, recording videos, and designing props for their celebrations. The children take proud ownership of their celebration as they are actively involved in all aspects of decision-making, planning and preparation. 

This is a great opportunity for children to work together collaboratively with peers in small groups. The children are learning to share ideas, negotiate, problem-solve and take on different roles in their project. It is wonderful to see the learning and skills that they have gained throughout the year on display through this collaborative project work. 

Each ‘Celebration of Learning’ is currently in production. After some more fine-tuning and rehearsal, the children will be delighted to share their work with families next week! We know that this promises to be a very special occasion not to be missed.
