Learning Focus: Working in Circles in the 5/6 Neighbourhood

Working in Circles in the 5/6 Neighbourhood

This term, the whole 5/6 Neighbourhood is exploring working in circles as the main component of our social and emotional wellbeing program. Working in circles offers a myriad of wonderful benefits such as building community, promoting positive interactions, promoting a safe, respectful, collaborative learning environment and much more.

On the last day of term 1, after having engaged in circle work for a couple of weeks, students were given the opportunity to share their thoughts on working in circles. They were also asked if they would like to draw an animal on the whiteboard 🙂 We found their comments inspiring and illuminating. Enjoy!
