Our Year 6 Learner's Toolkit In Classroom Action!
Our Year 6 Learner's Toolkit In Classroom Action!
Our Year 6 students from Mr Jonathon Wheatley's class were using their physical Learner's Toolkits to revise and test their understanding of what they just learnt across various subjects.
These Learner's Toolkits consist of five proven strategies that help students better structure and retain all the information they've been taught:
- Retrieve It | Visualise It | Space It | Jumble It | Connect It.
Watch our video to get the full physical Learner's Toolkit story! 😊

ISQ Media Release: Final Results Ready To Be Published For Year 12 Students
ISQ Media Release: Final Results Ready To Be Published For Year 12 Students
The moment many outgoing Year 12 students are waiting for is almost upon them, after another challenging year for students across the State.
More than 50,000 Queensland Year 12 students will be able to log on to view their final results when they are published online after 8am THIS Friday 17 December 2021.
Independent Schools Queensland Acting Chief Executive Officer Shari Armistead said the moment was an exciting time for many students - particularly the more than 10,000 students from Queensland independent schools - as they consider their future aspirations, whatever they may be.
“The diversity of the Queensland independent schooling sector is reflected in the desires and ambitions of its students,” Ms Armistead said.
“Their next big decision could involve university, skills training, joining the workforce, or a gap year.
“For some that decision will be clear, and for others, it might be a little more involved.
“Whatever decision these young people make, they should know there is a wide range of support available to help them navigate this important stage in their life.”
Ms Armistead said 2021 was challenging for many Queensland students.
“Across the independent schooling sector in 2021, there were some short-term school closures and increased health-related restrictions due to the pandemic,” she said.
“However, the way the students handled these disruptions is to be commended.
“Everyone across the State is wishing the Year 12 graduates every success in their future.”
Queensland Independent Schools Parents Network Executive Officer Justine Cirocco said the nerves felt by many students would also likely be felt by their parents as well.
“Parents play a fundamental role in the guidance and support of their children throughout their education, and the release of final results can be a big day for parents,” Ms Cirocco said.
“Whatever the outcomes, parents should feel assured there are plenty of resources and information available to help continue guiding their young people through this post-school transition period.
“School career guidance officers are a great place to start.
“Parents should also ensure they are across all QTAC and other education providers’ application deadlines, to help their children fully explore the options available to them.”
QTAC and the Queensland Curriculum & Assessment Authority have both put together a suite of useful information for students and parents.
Students will also be able to access their final subject and course results and, if eligible, their Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE).
These statements are prepared and released by the QCAA.

NEW Canterbury Drone Academy In 2022!
NEW Canterbury Drone Academy In 2022!
A rapid transformation of industry - caused by the growing interconnectedness between the digital world and the real world, is leading to a radical evolution of the skill sets required by our future workforce.
This is especially true for industries such as engineering, agriculture, healthcare, manufacturing and energy.
Employers are seeking people with additional skills and knowledge in robotics and digital systems, and their interface with industry.
The Australian Unmanned Systems Academy (AUSA) Certificate III in Aviation (Remote Pilot) provides Secondary Students with these skills, opening up many career and higher education pathways.
The combination of the Certificate III with the RePL (Remote Pilot) provides valuable opportunities for students.
It is the first step of a dynamic career in a variety of industries while also opening doors for students wishing to pursue higher education, including the Certificate IV in Aviation and further tertiary education pathways.
The curriculum has been carefully developed to deliver exciting technical and practical skill sets, while also bolstering student literacy, numeracy, and ICT skills.
Students have full independent access to the AUSA interactive e-Learning platform with full lecture content and presentations to support learning during and outside class times.
Practical classes utilising the highest industry grade and quality drones, sensors, flight systems and simulator equipment ensures the skills and experience our students acquire is directly applicable to real world expectations.
The Drone Academy can include students from earlier age groups to help build their skills and gain confidence.
The Academy will also focus on building skills to help students compete in Australia's Drone Competitions where students can showcase their skills in manoeuvres and coding against other colleges.
