About Us
We are an inclusive community and treasure the unique spirit of each and every child. Quality teaching and learning, high expectations and supportive relationships encourage our young children to develop in character and reach their very best.
Our education philosophy is grounded in ensuring our children are equipped with the foundational skills of literacy and numeracy, best preparing children for the phases of their schooling and life beyond.
Curriculum
ELC: An adventure every day.
Our ELC teachers develop warm and caring relationships with every child, encouraging them to be adventurous and embrace new challenges. We spark curiosity in our 3 and 4-year-olds through fun and exciting adventures, tailoring our program to help your child explore their passions and interests.
PREP - YEAR 2: Foundations for life.
In Prep, children are gently introduced to the joys of learning through play, creativity, and inquiry. Our curriculum is designed to spark curiosity and foster a love for discovery, laying a solid foundation in literacy, numeracy, and critical thinking skills. The classrooms are vibrant and interactive spaces, filled with laughter and the buzz of young minds at work.
As students progress to Year 1 and Year 2, they continue to build upon these foundational skills using explicit instruction; a structured, systematic and effective way to teach academic skills. Students are guided and supported, with clear explanations, until they master each new skill.
YEAR 3 - YEAR 6: Real-life learning.
Our Year 6 students become our school leaders. Their confidence has grown through our arts, sports and science programs, and this is their time to shine. Through Years 3 – 6, we continue to focus on developing strong literacy and numeracy skills. Our approach equips our students to develop the essential work habits that lay the foundation for future learning.
Wellbeing
We aim to provide a nurturing environment that supports your child’s educational and social development. Our community respects diversity and understands that students have unique wellbeing and learning needs.
