ELLI- Effective Lifelong Learning Inventory

At St Joseph’s we think it is vitally important that we support learners to develop the skills that they need to be successful across all areas of their lives. Elli allows us to develop these skills in a fun, character based way. Each animal has a different skill which the children will be able to learn from and explore.

 Elli is an elephant who has many good friends…
