I really like the pace of Muritai School at the moment. A few years ago we were getting tied in knots trying to get so much done through the school day. We thought that the more we did, the more the children would be educated.
Not so.
We looked closely and found that if we did a bit less, and allowed our children some more time on things, the social skills that they could develop with more time produced better outcomes. They were still doing work, but achieving much more advanced work at a much higher quality.
A good example is our senior school. Have a look at the blog and see the first few weeks of 2014. Interesting things, with a bit of time to develop things and kids getting to know their new class buddies. Great stuff.
