New and creative learning resources will soon be mailed to every family in the ICHK community.

We have been working on a number of projects to keep refreshing our students’ experience of learning, and ensure that they remain curious, engaged and keen to learn.

A pack of materials including a deck of cards and a booklet of Flexible Learning units is being compiled and will be arriving with you within the next week or two (Covid disruptions allowing).

The card deck features 52 questions or provocations, which families can use during meal times to promote interesting conversations, open up discussions and spark intellectual curiosity.

The booklet introduces long-term, free-flowing, deep-dive, and organic learning opportunities, all of which are designed to be completed off-line. We hope we have successfully created experiences that remind students of the exciting, rewarding, surprising things that life still offers, even in challenging circumstances.

There are units on art, writing, expressions of creativity and outdoor activities, all designed to ensure that students feel energised, positive and connected to school, whilst enabling them to plan, create, invent, imagine, develop good habits and be productive.

The importance of these sorts of activities cannot be over-emphasised at this time, and with these new resources we continue to work to support the holistic, all round project of productive, healthy human beings, which is at the heart of the ICHK ethos.
