Years 1 & 2
In grades 1 and 2, our students continue to build on the skills they developed in the foundation years. Our curriculum is designed to challenge students and encourage them to achieve their full potential.
The English curriculum emphasises reading, writing, and communication skills, while Mathematics emphasises problem-solving, reasoning, and fluency. Science encourages exploration and discovery of the natural world, and Humanities teaches social and cultural understanding. The curriculum develops personal, social, and physical skills, including wellness education.
Grade 1 is the best because I get to learn how to read stories and make new friends! ~ Tahlia H.
Outdoor Education
From year 1, students enjoy our Outdoor Education program, where they engage in outdoor activities, nature walks, and learn about local flora and fauna. This porgram, following on from our Coastal School, fosters a love for the environment and encourages curiosity about the natural world.
Buddy Reading Program
The Buddy Reading Program pairs Year 1 & 2 students with older students for reading sessions, promoting literacy skills, fostering friendships across year levels, and creating a sense of community within the school.
