Junior School and year 6/7 STEMtember Display

Parents and families are invited and highly encouraged to attend the wonderful Junior School and Year 6/7 STEMtember display of student learning inquiry and challenge Tuesday 18th September. The Junior School and Year 6/7 Stem display  is one of many events taking place during ‘STEMtember’ at Tenison Woods College, a month-long celebration of STEM learning (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics). This display provides the opportunity to appreciate contemporary learning and pedagogical approaches, which highlights multi-discipline and integrated problem-based learning, innovative and authentic curriculum, and incorporating real world applications.  The Junior School students and the Year 6/7 students will showcase their learning from their integrated learning sessions in class  which have also been designed to inspire and foster student's inner curiosity for problem solving using critical, creative and collaborative skills through STEM-based activities.
