Help make a difference... we need your contributions!
A few IB learners are keen to support the affected communities in Syria and Turkey by raising money through a Community Bake sale on Thursday.
As organisations have had challenges with so many items being donated, the learners felt that financial donations to an organisation supporting the relief work was the best way to help.
We will be supporting these communities by raising money through a Community Bake sale on Thursday 23rd February.
Learners can help by bringing in baked items which can be sold at the event. You can also bring a few dollars to buy from the stall which will be available at lunchtime in the Atrium.

How can we support behaviour in a non-punitive way?
Nexus aspires for all learners to achieve the highest academic levels possible, which entails maximum engagement in learning opportunities. Furthermore, Nexus aspires to be a highly supportive and relational community where every individual feels belonging, which entails highly respectful and caring behaviours. This workshop starts by exploring how we can set up learners for success in terms of their engagement and behaviours. We then look at how we may respond effectively in a non-punitive way when engagement and/or behaviour is less than what is expected. This will be an active workshop in which participants are asked to engage in some activities and exchange ideas.

PYP: Scope & Sequences
The Curriculum! Transition to MYP
This workshop will look at the scope and sequence documents that underpin our Programme of Inquiry. We will delve into what scope and sequence documents are and how these documents are used. We will look at how teaching teams use these documents to plan and how the curriculum underpins our units of inquiry. Finally we will look at the key similarities between PYP and MYP, including subject specific focus and key programme elements such as the ATLs and Learner Profile.

We will be celebrating Book Week - 13 - 17 March 2023, the penultimate week of Term 3.
As always the week will be filled with exciting activities and culminate in our dress-up day, where learners and staff dress as their favourite book character.
This has traditionally been a dress-up that has produced some of the most interesting and exciting costumes, we encourage everyone to get involved.
This years theme is Telling Our Stories - we look forward to seeing the characters!
