Building Learning Power – Our Wyvern Learning Framework
At Wyvern we are deeply committed to equipping our boys with lifelong learning tools that will hold them in good stead into the 21st century. As part of our learning, we embed lessons with strategies where we teach boys to be more resilient, resourceful, reflective and reciprocal.
Michelle Brixen and Rachael Dillon, our BLP Learning Community Leaders, will be holding a parent information session on Wednesday 9 August from 8:30am – 9:30am in the Library. For those parents in K-2, this will be perfect timing before attending the K-2 Athletics Carnival at 10.00am at the senior school. The session will explore what BLP is, how we use BLP at Wyvern and some of the strategies you can use at home to help support your son(s) to become better able to persevere and demonstrate resilience. The session will also include some practical activities and an opportunity for you to ask questions, provide feedback and gain access to additional resources.
Everyone is most welcome to come along and learn more about how learning has changed over the past decade and why these changes are having such positive effects on our boys.
