COURSE DESCRIPTION
We know that academic success in later years depends on a solid foundation. Learning in a loving, caring environment with a well-balanced and culturally enriched program gives our students the best possible start. Our curriculum is broad, exciting, innovative, and holistic, and we give a distinct focus to each of the academic, social, cultural, sporting, and spiritual aspects of your child’s development.
FOCUS ON FUNDAMENTALS
Key focuses include building strong literacy and numeracy skills, allowing opportunities for students to think and express themselves creatively, encouraging collaborative and team-based activities, developing critical thinking skills and providing opportunities for authentic problem solving.
The use of ICT is embedded into daily activities and programmes. We aim to ensure that all children are able to build a solid foundation in key learning areas while developing the necessary self-esteem and confidence to reach their potential. Learning is done at a carefully planned and manageable pace that fully prepares them to gently transition into the Middle Years.

Plan collaboratively in and across year levels, using regular assessment to inform their teaching and learning program and to differentiate learning activities which allows each student to succeed at their own level.
