PYP Exhibition

Maria Arneil —

The 2021 Year 8 PYP Exhibition was held on the evening of Tuesday 2nd November.

Not to be confused with The Mount Pleasant Art Exhibition, the PYP Exhibition is a student driven event that celebrates a culmination of their learning throughout their time here at Te Kura O Paeraki | Mt Pleasant School. This year's PYP Exhibition was no exception, with current local and global issues explored and addressed by our ambitious tamariki.

Using our wonderful facility, Paparahi, the Year 8 students set up a visual display of their inquiries that were both informative as well as entertaining.

Parents coming through were impressed on a number of levels, with constructive comments and feedback that helps the students and ourselves reflect on the entire purpose and process of the PYP Exhibition.

“Students were Knowledgeable and spoke confidently.”

“Great visuals that were informative and demonstrated research.”

“Students were prepared to challenge the status quo.”

“Great to see some students interacting with the community during their inquiry process.”

A huge “Thank you” to our amazing Year 8’s and the T@TT Teachers for their hard work and perseverance. Year 2021 has challenged us in many ways to get this PYP Exhibition to fruition. Let us hope that 2022 will be a year where we are able to extend an open invitation to ALL our whānau to come and visit this amazing showcase.
