Learning
We know that children are best able to learn if their social, emotional and spiritual needs are met. We believe that the Pastoral Care of our students is crucial in their development as learners. Our programs teach children how to get along, solve conflicts, develop empathy resilience and independence whilst respecting ourselves and each other. Class teachers are at the forefront of your child’s social and emotional development at school. They recognise the value of effect partnerships between school and home to in the development of their children’s wellbeing and aim to support this by working with families in our school.
Philosophy of Learning
We believe that every student is a unique individual created by God with their own special gifts, strengths and needs. In order for students to build their own positive image of themselves as learners and contributors to their communities they are provided with relevant, purposeful and appropriate learning experiences. These learning experiences are structured and presented in a variety of ways with opportunities for both success and personal challenge. Students are encouraged to take ownership of and contribute direction to the learning experience. The school facilitates this learning by providing timely and purposeful feedback and learning environments which promote a positive atmosphere of trust and safe risk taking.
