Beginning of the Year 2025

Creating labels 2025

Blog Making

 Today Jess and Ashley and I worked on updating our blogs. Ashley already had a blog set-up from previous years and we both supported Jess in setting up her very brand new blog. 

Some reminders for setting up new blogs

- labels need to be made on posts

- Pages is what we copy the annual goals, targets etc onto.

St Joseph's Expectations of Pedagogy and Practise PLD - with Jacque Allen

This year I have been working with Jacque on developing our school pedagogical practice. This aligns with research based pedagogy of assessment for learning practices. We are also keeping it in line with cognitive load theory and science of learning. We have worked with the CAT team in developing this and have run two staff meetings in supporting the teachers to implement this within their practise.
