Coming Together with Maple Place

During the March 21st early closure, we invited families to come and celebrate one year of coming together with Maple Place. During the open house we shared our documentation, Coming Together with Place, an invitation to listen, to notice, and to respond with care. In the documentation we explored how our first year with Maple Place has not just been about us; it has been about learning how to be together with place. In this post, we share a glimpse into the open house – a summary of the text and photos of the exhibit panels, and our ethos which we wrote together after a year of thinking together with Place. We offer traces of our learning, echoes of our conversations, and the many ways we are coming to know and care for this place and one another. If you are interested in seeing the full exhibit, you are welcome to stop by.

A Twitter love/life letter from Kelly Boucher

The below Tweet is from Kelly Boucher, a pedagogical facilitator in Melbourne, Australia. A few of us have had the opportunity to meet with her a few years ago. Her message is lovely and acts as wonderful and much needed reminder for educators…. ?
