Proud to be part of this powerful network of schools driving evidence-based practice. Wamberal PS continues to learn so much from our colleagues as we embed explicit teaching to support every student every day.

This was one of the most beneficial exec PL days that I have participated in. It was all centred on collective efficacy!
Our executive staff completing Explicit Teaching demonstration lessons for each other, followed by shared coaching sessions. We worked on consistency and processes. What a great day of open and purposeful dialogue. #bluehavenpublicschool #BHPSleadership #coachingconsistency

At @BlueHaven_PS we had our EV panel today with lead panelist @jasonmarkconroy and peer principal @flashflan65. It was fantastic to come together to evaluate and celebrate our amazing school. I thoroughly enjoy the EV process as part of the school excellence cycle.
