PRIMARY SCHOOL PYP WALK

This years’ PYP Walk showcased student learning from across all areas. It was a joy to welcome our community back onto campus to share in celebrating our student work. The six themes of focus through the showcase were:

• Who We Are

• Sharing The Planet

• How We Express Ourselves

• How The World Works

• How We Organise Ourselves

• Where We Are In Place And Time

The amazing display of student work showed both creativity and critical thinking. There was a diverse range of student work on display that included an interactive Science and Technology exhibit in the Library and Music performances throughout the afternoon.

Primary School

National Science Week at CGS was filled with activities and opportunities to practice analytical thinking, reasoning, and problem-solving. This year’s theme for National Science Week was Glass: More Than Meets the Eye, celebrating glass as one of the most important, versatile, and transformative materials of history. The theme brought many concepts to life, along with opportunities to explore and hands-on experiments using microscopes, magnifying glasses and kaleidoscopes.

As National Science Week continued, activities such as a Balloon Buggy

Competition saw students from ELC – Year 6 construct a balloon buggy at home to bring in and compete against each other during their lunch breaks until they reached a nail-biting showdown of the best buggies.
