Community Day - July 2018

The theme of July's Tallis Voices Community Day was 'Who are we? Where are we going?' Inspired by emotional learning cards produced by the Institute of International Visual Arts (INIVA), students explored the relationship between visual literacy and emotional intelligence, creating their own cards and accompanying texts in collaborative, mixed age groups. The Year 8 tallis Media team was on hand to document events. You can listen to our podcast on Tallis Sounds, take a look at the photographs on Flickr and watch the films on Vimeo.

Thanks to Ms Springer and Ms Bartoli for organising the day and our friends at INIVA and ASpace for their support.

Term Dates 2018-19

The term dates for 2018-19 are now available in the Calendar section of the website.
