WEEK WITHOUT WALLS
WEEK WITHOUT WALLS
We are delighted to be able to run our Week Without Walls Program again this academic year. This is a great opportunity for students to extend their learning and skills to real life experiences occurring outside a traditional classroom. Students get a chance to put all of their learner profiles into practice from being a risk taker when taking on new challenges to being open minded when learning about the cultures of local people. In PYP we offer a developmental program which gradually prepares students to be more independent and resilient.
In Grade 3 students will embark on their first residential trip which is a 1 night/ 2 day trip, in Grade 4 students extend to a 2 night/ 3 day trip and in Grade 5 students will go on a 3 night/ 4 day trip.

Code of Conduct for Residential Trips

Travelling students must then also sign this agreement in the presence of their Homeroom Teacher.
