With Us
Discovery College hosts several parent education sessions throughout the year which aim to: • Inform parents of the different aspects of the PYP, MYP, DP and CP • Equip parents with relevant and current strategies to support learning at home • Identify and address needs that arise from the parent community • Strengthen relationships and communication between the school and home • Equip parents with strategies to further support and strengthen family wellbeing
On 14 September, over 100 Year 1 and 2 parents attended a session that focused on “How do young learners develop and how can we support their growth?” Led by Primary VP, Jason Boon, the interactive session kicked off with a game of “get to know you” bingo. Then parents and workshop leaders looked at understanding key features of child development, building learning experiences, positive ways to support learning at home as well as growing independence and agency.
