At the start of 2016, Seville Road State School replaced their existing History and Geography units with the integrated Understanding Our World HASS + Science materials developed by OpenSTEM. As this school year draws to a close, we’d like to invite you to come and celebrate the marvellous outcomes that the students and teachers have achieved: Thursday 24 November 2016, 3:30pm.
This is your perfect opportunity to look at the materials and actual class work, as well as ask lots of questions! Meet with Cheryl Rowe (Principal), Andrea Budd (Head of Curriculum), several teachers, OpenSTEM’s Arjen Lentz (Chief Explorer) and Dr Claire Reeler, who leads the Understanding Our World program development.
Join us on Thursday 24 November 2016, 3:30pm at Seville Road State School library!
Free event. RSVP today. Drinks and nibbles will be provided.
You can also download this invite as a PDF leaflet to pass on to others.

I played this game 3 or 4 times with my grade 4 son. He said he would enjoy it more…
