As the culminating Primary Years Program (PYP) experience, it is required that the Exhibition reflects all the major features of the IB program. The PYP Exhibition offers students the opportunity to:

• Engage in collaborative, in-depth inquiry about a significant, relevant issue

• Demonstrate independence and responsibility for their own learning
• Explore multiple perspectives about an issue
• Synthesize and apply their learning of previous years 
• Reflect on themselves as internationally-minded students 
• Demonstrate their understanding in an authentic situation
• Show how they can take action as a result of their learning
• Unite with teachers, parents and other members of the school community in a cooperative experience that incorporates the essential elements of the PYP: Knowledge, Learner Profiles/Attitudes, Key Concepts, Approaches to Learning, Action
• Celebrate their transition from primary to middle/secondary education
