FLEXIBLE LEARNING SPACES

WHY HAVE FLEXIBLE LEARNING SPACES?

At St Bernard’s we are very fortunate to be surrounded by large classrooms and large outdoor space for learning and enjoyment. Our classrooms are equipped with a variety of furniture with diverse seating arrangements and learning spaces. It is empowering for students to understand themselves as learners and have control and responsibility over where they learn. In a flexible environment students build independent learning behaviours and develop a strong understanding of themselves as learners. At our school students are given the opportunity to take advantage of both indoor and outdoor learning environments and the space enables students to work in a variety of ways and areas. We use the space and vary our instruction and learning activities based on the needs of our students and the content being covered. Students can move around, work at tables, on the floor, in small groups, on stools as well as standing. The learning spaces are utilised in a variety of ways, both student and teacher led. We are working with all students in an ongoing capacity to help them build their skills in independence and understanding of themselves as learners and how they learn best. We are here to instruct, encourage, engage and inspire your children in a teaching and learning environment that is dynamic and meets the individual needs of your children while giving them the skills to be independent, inquisitive and skilled lifelong learners.
