PYP Gallery Walk at Westlink: A Journey of Empowered Learning

Step into a world where students take the lead. Welcome to the Westlink PYP Gallery Walk! Far from a traditional parent-teacher meeting, the PYP Gallery Walk at Westlink International School transformed classrooms into creative exhibition spaces. Here, students took the lead, showcasing their ownership of learning and connecting deeply with their families through real-world projects.

Classrooms Become Creative Exhibition Hubs

At Westlink International School Hanoi, learning goes beyond completing assignments - it is a continuous journey of experience, feedback, and sharing. The recent PYP Gallery Walk served as a vivid testament to the modern educational philosophy that the school champions.

Within these inspiring classroom spaces, students were no longer passive listeners. Instead, they acted as the architects of their own knowledge, confidently inviting parents to explore projects they had researched and created firsthand.

Highlights of the PYP Gallery Walk

Through this exhibition, parents gained a front-row seat to how Westlink students approach multi-dimensional knowledge:

  • The Alphabet Project: Building a solid linguistic foundation through visual and interactive learning methods.

  • SMART Goal Setting: Cultivating self-discipline, goal-orientation, and a sense of purpose from the elementary level.

  • The Inquiry Journey: Parents didn't just see the final product; they understood the "how" behind the learning-where curiosity and real-world exploration drive knowledge.

 

Holistic Student Development

Beyond academic excellence, Westlink is dedicated to equipping students with essential life skills for the future:

  1. Confidence & Communication: Presenting personal projects to an audience helps students break through barriers of shyness.

  2. Independence & Agency: Students take full responsibility for their work, from the initial concept to the final presentation.

  3. Community Connection: At Westlink, every student’s voice is valued, and every milestone is celebrated by a supportive community of teachers and parents.

The PYP Gallery Walk is more than just a showcase; it is a celebration of an educational environment where students are empowered to be themselves and confidently step forward as future global citizens.
