It will be held in the Music Centre from 5pm-8pm. This year there are seven staff members presenting an array of ideas and research, some reporting on their PhD study while others are exploring their own professional learning. Other sessions this year will explore the emerging use of ICT in class combined with robotics combined with inquiry learning. One session will also explore the new approach to staff coaching that will be implemented through the College of Teachers in 2016. It is always a fantastic night and this year will be no different. We thank the staff for their commitment in this area and look forward to this event. The program for the evening is attached here for your reference.
