Our Early Learners

The primary years of schooling have a special place in the educational experience of children. These years are crucial in a child's development providing the foundation for success as life-long learners. We believe that such a foundation is built in a safe, happy and supportive environment where students remain enthusiastic learners. This is facilitated through positive relationships between teachers and students, programs that are responsive to the needs of learners and teaching strategies and learning experiences that motivate students to learn.

We Believe

We believe that with high expectations, children will rise to meet those expectations. Our staff value high levels of respectful behaviour and that students take pride in their work. We value Respect, Responsibility and Resilience. These values are clear to any on-looker in our school.
