Our programmes emphasize the development of strong literacy and numeracy skills and higher-order thinking skills.  Exploration, collaboration and cooperative learning are encouraged to expose children to a range of learning approaches.  We teach an integrated curriculum in which learning is based around authentic and real world topics.

I value the relationship our school develops with its community and look forward to your involvement with our school.
