　　Knowing what your child is learning helps you support them throughout their education.

　　In this section you can find out how public education works and the range of learning opportunities offered for students to challenge their thinking, and make the most of their unique talents.

　　Our Preschool program provides exciting and varied activities to support your child's interests, needs and development.

　　The program stimulates children's thinking, communicating, investigating, exploring and problem solving skills. It also promotes physical activity and healthy eating, and helps them be ready for transition to school.

　　Our early childhood trained teacher and school learning support officer are guided by the early years learning framework - belonging, being and becoming that emphasises play-based learning, communication and language (including early literacy and numeracy), and social and emotional development.

　　Primary learning includes whole-class, group and individual activities designed to develop an inquiring mind and teach basic learning skills needed for schooling and later life.

　　Literacy and numeracy are the building blocks of learning and that is why English and mathematics take up half of students' learning time in primary school.

　　During Term 3 we will be commencing our Transition to School Program.

　　If you are interested in visiting our fantastic school, please contact the school directly for enrolment information. We will be updating our website during Term 2 with information regarding our transition to school dates.
