Prep
Starting school is such a big milestone in your child’s life and we support the transition from Kinder to Foundation to make this a seamless and positive new beginning. The first year of school is a crucial time for building essential skills. In Foundation, a solid grounding in literacy and numeracy is built through explicit instruction and hands-on learning. A systematic phonics approach, combined with decodable readers, helps students develop strong reading and writing skills from the outset. In mathematics, manipulatives are used to make learning interactive and concrete. Clear routines and expectations are taught and reinforced to instill positive learning behaviours, ensuring every student is engaged and ready to succeed.
