This week Tautoru was buzzing as students shared their accomplishments and new learning goals with whanau. Student Led Conferences are a wonderful opportunity for our children to celebrate their learning successes so far (positive accomplishment) and to identify new goals or challenges in their learning.
In the weeks leading up to SLCs we spent some time reflecting on goals we had set earlier in the year. It was really exciting when we realised that we had achieved so much since setting those goals. We identified that drawing on our strengths of Love of Learning, Curiosity, Perseverance and using a Growth Mindset helped us to achieve these great milestones in our learning.
SlCs are also a great way for students to share with whanau their passions, interests and the things that excite them at school (positive engagement)! We all showed Leadership during our conferences and we looked like we were having a fun time.
Here are some of our own thoughts about SLCs:
"The Treasure Hunt was fun because I got to show mum and dad some music and Growth Mindset videos".
"I like that we get to share what our goals are with our parents and that we are able to show them a few things we can do now that we couldn’t do earlier in the year".
"I really liked it because the Treasure Hunt was fun. My mum liked learning about Growth Mindset".
