We went away so inspired and keen to make changes in our school. Already teachers are wandering in our grounds more, there is greater integration of learning and we have begun a partnership with one of the local kindergartens (they are supporting us with learning stories). Next term we are changing the timetable, introducing learning stories and project based learning while giving our children (and staff) the gift of time to explore and ponder and reason and discover :) As we said on the day we are starting a revolution!

Great to know that some of the primary schools are also taking up the challenge and creating a child centred program that fits in with the Key Competencies of the NZ Curriculum.
