Our beautiful mural was a perfect background to film clips for our class website as part of our PBL inquiry to provide other students with information about koalas in our local area @PsElderslie @Clarke4535 @tickytecky #EPSBeMore

[Real Mark Latham @RealMarkLatham]

To hear Year 2 students at Elderslie Public talk about the 'evidence' of their learning progress and how they demonstrate this was fantastic.
Also the confidence and maturity of the Yr 5 and 6 student leaders was off the charts in a good way.
Best practice in schools is possible!
