NeighbourhoodTime



As part of the Neighbourhood philosophy students are given blocks of time together on a weekly basis. During these extended times students work on an integrated project, developing and using a variety of problem solving skills, such as thinking tools, graphic organisers and charts. Through extensive use of groupwork students problem solve as part of a team, developing, trust, confidence, active listening skills, negoitation and presentation skills. Students learn to share and discuss problems through effective communication as a valid and vital team member.
