XLIS PYP Exhibition 2023

 

One of the most exciting times in the PYP is the Exhibition. The Exhibition provides opportunities for students in primary 6 to showcase what they learned throughout their time in the PYP. Our primary 6 students engage in collaborative group work by conducting an in-depth inquiry about real-life issues they are passionate about.

This year’s Exhibition has been incredible for many reasons. Every year, the Exhibition is different. It is about our students’ interests and their ideas. We have the biggest group so far, a total of ten groups that inquired into the following issues:

• Architecture

• Global Warming

• Bullying

• Gender Equality

• Arts

• Health & Sports

• Nuclear Energy

• Animals

• Gaming

• Natural Disaster

 

Once again, our strong sense of community was a huge part of the success of the Exhibition. We are fortunate to work with mentors from the whole school, including secondary and primary principals, DP and PYP Coordinators, secondary, EAL, and EY teachers, whole school counselor, Head of Whole School Cultural Activities, and P6 homeroom teachers. During the inquiry, the students invited guest speakers, went on a field trip, and conducted surveys to help them find information and conduct research.

One of the best parts of the Exhibition is seeing students grow and take responsibility for their learning as they work collaboratively to explore the chosen issue. They demonstrated the learner profile attributes and approaches to learning, helping, and supporting each other to achieve their goals. It was wonderful to see how each group developed as a team and became united as they presented their research to the community. We couldn’t be prouder to see primary 6 students shine on the stage. It was indeed a celebration of learning!
