We focus on a holistic approach that nurtures their intellectual, emotional, physical, and social development. Our dedicated teachers utilize innovative teaching methods and a student-centered approach to ensure that every child receives personalized attention and support.

Academically, our curriculum is carefully crafted to meet the highest educational standards while stimulating curiosity and a love for learning. We offer a wide range of subjects (Curriculum Areas),

  • English Language
  • Mathematics
  • Society and Environment

Paving the Path to Excellence

In each curriculum area the student learning outcomes are arranged around five achievement levels for students from Prep to Grade 8. The levels do not correlate with any grade but are sequential. Students starting school would normally be working towards outcomes stated for Level 1 and students in Grade 8 would be working around level 5

Our achievement levels allow for individualized development, recognizing that every child is unique and learns at their own pace. By aligning learning outcomes with specific levels, we can tailor instruction and support to meet the diverse needs of each student. This personalized approach ensures that your child receives the appropriate challenges and opportunities for growth, fostering confidence and a sense of accomplishment.
