Teaching and Curriculum Update
Kindergarten Curriculum Focus
The start of kindergarten always brings a mix of emotions from parents and students alike. The kindergarten teachers have been busily preparing to set our new students up for success. The successful foundations program is designed to strengthen the process of transition to school in the first five weeks of Kindergarten utilising a strengths-based approach which supports the child's active engagement in play.
Successful Foundations highlights the importance of play for learning and wellbeing as well as child development. The creativity, curiosity, wonderings, reflections and discoveries of children raise the image of the child and celebrate their many capabilities and strengths.
Successful foundations walks hand in hand with our Catholic faith, our commitment to re-imagining childhood and our understanding of transition to school as a time of establishing connections and relationships to eventually develop a sense of belonging for each child and the child’s family.
