Hapori
A Hapori course is a non-curricular focused learning experience driven by student passion. Rooted in the concept of "hapori" or community, these courses empower students to explore diverse topics outside the traditional curriculum, fostering collaboration and a sense of ownership over their learning. With a focus on self-directed exploration, Hapori courses encourage students to pursue their interests, ranging from creative arts to technology and social issues. This initiative reflects our commitment to cultivating well-rounded individuals who are not only academically proficient but also deeply connected to their passions and the broader community.
For those students who have an interest in 3d modelling, arts and crafts and narrative design, we'll be making custom versions of one of the activities we explored in Term Two.
This class will focus on CREATING products, rather than simply playing them.
Students will need their own devices (not phones) with design software ready to use (think Photoshop, Illustrator, Blender or OnShape). If you don't know how to use any of this software, expect to work your way independently through tutorials related to these (so you can gain the skills needed to make something).
