Without a doubt, the best incursion of my career. Gina & Guy visited Karrinyup PS today. Sharing stories, songs, Noongar language & humour. The kids sung Bindi Bindi & Wanjoo together with Gina & Guy bringing tears & pride. Deadly & solid. Proud Principal.
The knowledge that Play, Learning and Relationhips are interconnected has been around for a long time. We need to remember that knowing who our learners are is always the best place to start! #playbasedlearning
Vasse Digital is back! We are well and truly up and running and ready for 2020. Our Twitter feed will be focusing on play-based learning, digi-tech, inquiry and flexible learning spaces this year. And, of course, Friday Funnies.

Looking back at the past #decade, we're proud of our long-term partnerships with progressive schools like @vasseps in WA, where we've created agile #learningspaces and staff spaces over years. Learn more about the impact of these spaces here: hubs.ly/H0mwf1T0
Flexible furniture:
- engages students
- allows students to match furniture to tasks (individual, collaborative, whole class)
- meets learner’s needs
- takes learning beyond the walls of the classroom
- is comfortable
The Reno committee did an amazing job on our staffroom, creating a welcoming & relaxing space for a most deserving & hard working staff to enjoy & refresh! @westbusseltonps
Yesterday I got to present on the work @ImmsWesley and I are doing with @vasseps on the effect of classroom furniture on student engagement and teacher pedagogy. A great project funded by @norvanivel that we were privileged to share at the University of Bologna
Great day today to University of Bologna with professor Wesley Imms and dr Julia Morris thank you for their interesting workshop! Thank you to professor Patrizia Sandri for organisation and Caterina Tanza for translation.
Tasmin Drummond from @vasseps loves her job and empowering students.
“I want them to leave school knowing that they matter... and how important they are in shaping the future,” she says.
Tasmin is a finalist in the WA Beginning Teacher of the Year.

Our art teachers are being trained in green screen and iMovie so that our young artists can be interviewed about their recent entries into our Arts Day.
Look out humans there’s another mammal with musical talent!
Vasse Primary School was visited by a friendly Alpaca this morning! It came to celebrate National Simultaneous Storytime and promote the value of reading and literacy. #AlpacasWithMaracas#NSS2019#1MillionKidsReading
Another successful STEMcell workshop @vasseps, conducted by @liv3_olivia. Today we covered working smarter in #digitaltechnologies, with a focus on effectively integrating curriculum to work smarter, not harder. Thanks to everyone who came along! #TDS2018_2019
It’s great to see our own staff embracing 3D printing. This colleague attended a PD at school, and has now got her class designing and printing some amazing lighthouses as part of their learning. She even knows how to fix the printer! @ASissoev@vasseps#TDS2018#3Dprinting
