Year 7 in the SCIL Building - integrated studies in action! 150 students, one large interconnected space. 6 fantastic team-working teachers. Definitely the way to go in terms of engaging student interest. Well done Year 7 team!

/What if we could bring architects, computer companies, furniture designers, builders, philanthropists, leaders, educators, students, creative thinkers together in one place and time. What if those people could focus their skills and talents on the needs of the developing world. What if we could make a difference!
Can we create an environment where the collision of great ideas shapes a solution?
Rwanda 2011
/I have taken on a challenge. How might I contribute to changing the education experience for children in the northern Rwandan region of Musanze - at the foothills of the Volcanoes NP and the home of the mountain gorillas.
How might I place the needs of the schools in this area on to the world map?
It’s early days - but I am thinking of locating an ‘Open Space’ conference in the region - a conference that workshops ideas to help address the challenging needs of the schools.
Thinking a title for the conference might be something along the lines of ‘International partnerships for transforming learning in developing nations’.
