Together with a great team of mentors from various clusters : Tom, Tara and Meryl; Jinks, Melissa and Josh; Siobhan and Linda from Mersing we headed to Tioman for a two day event with Ziba, the Rompin DLO, Puan Salme and ELO of Pahang.
Within the theme of 'Little Red Riding Hood', we ran Art, Drama, Reading and Writing sessions throughout the day at both schools. Students were able to experience English within each of these sessions throughout the day before ending off with a fun quiz with prizes at the end.
In Art, students were able to experiment with finger puppets and draw different aspects of the story. In Drama, they practised basic characterisation, expressed various emotions of characters and at the end used props and costumes to act out the play. In Reading and Writing, fun games were used to really help students enjoy and learn how to read and write within the scope of this well known children's story.

Professional Development.
In terms of Professional Development, teachers were paired with mentors and spent the day assisting them in each session learning skills and activities they could use within their own classrooms. Throughout the day they completed a survey and took notes and gave feedback on which sessions they enjoyed the most and how they would adapt certain ideas for their daily lesson plans.
A fun day was had by all and both students and teachers from these non-Tell schools expressed their enjoyment throughout the day. At the end of each day Brighton mascots made an appearance and thrilled the students with prizes and fun. Thanks to all involved for a great event! - Lauren
