Learning Conservations – Wednesday 12 June and Thursday 13 June

The learning conversations are three-way conferences with the teacher, child and parent. Three-way conferences take the form of a conversation between the child, the parents and the teacher as they sit together and talk about the child’s learning, with the child taking an equal role. This approach give children an opportunity to share with their parents their growth as a learner. The three-way conferences are designed to achieve one or more of the following goals:

to help children demonstrate evidence of learning,
to teach children the process of reflection and self-evaluation,
to facilitate the development of child’s organisational and oral communication skills and to increase their self-confidence,
to encourage children, parents, and teachers to engage in open and honest dialogue,
to encourage children to accept personal responsibility for their learning.

Times for Learning Conversations are:

Wednesday 12 June 12:30pm – 6:30pm and Thursday 13 June 3:15pm – 6:30pm

On Wednesday 12 June the school will close at 12.00pm, can you please collect your child at this time this is only for Wednesday 12 June.

Each learning conversation session lasts for 15 minutes.
