                                    mat. On Tuesday 26
       th                      andWednesday 27 th ,
       we gave the students the rare
       opportunity to show their understanding of
       the criteria for good effort and in
       applying them to their own and others’
       work in a spectacular show of portfolios
       to parents in the classrooms. Portfolios are
       a collection of pupils’ work representing a
       selection of performance. A portfolio may
       be a folder containing a child’s best pieces
       and the pupil’s evaluation of the strengths
       and weaknesses of those pieces. It may
       contain one or more work-in-progress that
       illustrate(s) the creation of an idea - such as
       an essay evolving through various stages of
       planning, drafting, revision and publishing.
       Parents who signed up and attended the
       event had a lot to say about our students’
       confidence and the depth of their knowl-
       edge and application.
       It was breathtaking!
