'Project Based Learning' Initiative - Day 1

Today we kick-started an exciting whole school 'PBL' or Project- Based Learning initiative. With students across all yeargroups involved, this initiative motivates students to navigate real- world issues using a hands- on approach. Project- based learning inspires in students critical and independant thinking, decision- making, collaboration, and digital literacy.

Our students began the process by watching the video "A Future where the Global Goals are Achieved", and after their groups formed, started to create a project in response to the video. 

Our students have began exploring a wide variety of ideas, and so far we have seen posters, short films, and even podcasts in the works!

2nd Year Art - Collaboration with the Hugh Lane Gallery

Our 2nd year Art Class created these beautiful geometric card and wire sculptures in collaboration with the Hugh Lane Gallery's 'Teen Culture Club'. The online artists talks offered our students the opportunity to explore various art forms and engage with the artists themselves! This was a great experience for all involved!
