Primary School
Grade 1-6
OUR PHILOSOPHY
As a Marist school, we aim to develop the potential of all our students through our academic, sports, culture, leadership, and community involvement.
Our Primary School seeks to provide a progressive and stimulating environment where our students are encouraged to think critically, creatively, and analytically. This empowers and helps them to develop their potential across all areas of school life. Literacy and numeracy are essential skills that children need to succeed in their everyday lives, which is why it is a key focus in the early years.
Developing the whole child
An equally important area of focus in our learning is helping children harness their interpersonal skills and emotional intelligence, teamwork, leadership, and the ability to think on their feet and work under pressure to equip them with the skill sets needed for a changing future.
The creative use of technology enables our students and teachers to move beyond traditional classrooms, transforming education through innovative and unique ways of learning.
Our children learn and grow within a community where they experience care, feel safe and secure, have clear expectations of how they should be treated by others, and have high expectations for themselves in how they behave towards other people.
Sport
The main purpose of sport at the College is to provide everyone with the knowledge and experience to be active for life.
Throughout the school the focus will be on providing opportunities for participation, enjoyment and excellence. Our programmes foster:
Active participation throughout the school and this correlates positively with improved academic performance. Participation increases the likelihood of the student becoming an active adult.
