Early Years
In Early Years we are setting up the foundations for learning for our students. Focusing on establishing routines, expectations and skills that are needed to be a great learner. There is a focus on developing oral language, reading, writing and maths. We have just implemented Investigations work across the classrooms and the zones of regulation are a key tool used to regulate our behaviours.

Middle Years
In Middle Years we have the most amazing staff who bring together a wealth of knowledge, experience and enthusiasm to deliver the best possible programs for our wonderful students.
In English all students are involved in Writer’s Workshop. This offers students exposure to participate in the writing process in meaningful, authentic writing tasks that they are interested in. Middle Years students also “Get Knowledge Ready” (GKR) in reading. This process gets students’ brains ready to draw out prior knowledge and get ready to take on new information.
In Maths students work on skills required for life. They start the session with a game to consolidate number sense, then complete open-ended activities which require them to work both within a group and independently.
Wellbeing is a major focus in Middle Years. Students participate in weekly meditation sessions, Yoga, Boy’s Group and Girl’s Group. All students participate in the “Friends for Life” program which assists students to develop skills for life to effectively cope with difficult or anxiety provoking situations. Friends for Life normalises the emotional state of anxiety and builds emotional resilience and problem solving abilities.
Along with these core areas, students in the Middle Years are offered a range of other programs including cooking, community participation, swimming, sensory, gardening, ICT, Science, PE, Huff n Puff, Art and Music.
