Napier Intermediate School is embarking on a project based approach to learning this year, working with the local community to help achieve the government's Predator Free 2050 goal. We started thinking about this last year and on the last day of the holidays, Ruud Kleinpaste (aka The Bugman) and the Cape to City team put on a great session for staff. Teachers explored ideas around using the outdoor school environment to engage students in real issue learning. We certainly got pretty up close and personal with a few pests during the process!
It was an inspirational day thanks to the dedicated people who poured their passion into the participants. I’m excited about what will come from this day for the future thinking students and teachers at this school. and I'd love the opportunity to explore this with concept other schools. If you are able to see how the whole curriculum drips from such rich and real learning opportunities, give me a call. I've had several years experience with developing these ways of working and will guarantee it works. Genuine student directed learning in action solving real world problems.
