As educators we are charged with the great challenge and responsibility
of engaging students in learning so that they develop the skills and
knowledge they need to function in today’s world and as parents we are
responsible to reinforce the need for learning from home.

On Thursday 9th March, parents of the third year with their child’s
teachers put together a collaborative effort on understanding inquiry
based learning which is an educational approach that offers promise in
supporting students to become thoughtful, motivated, collaborative and
innovative learners capable of engaging in their own inquiries and
thriving in a world of constant change.
Parents were guided by the teachers to perform various science
experiments from resources that are readily available in the kitchen.
States of matter, floating and sinking and air pressure were some of the
topics involved.
Children learn best from experience, they learn by doing; using their
senses, exploring their environment of people and things around them.
One of the ways that parents can engage with their children is inquiry
based learning.
The session ended with a Q&A session that allowed parents to
communicate with teachers in order to bridge the gap between the
parent school relationships.
