English

In the Primary Years (Prep - Year 6):  Students follow the Australian Curriculum syllabus documents for English, Mathematics, Science, Humanities and Social Sciences, The Arts, HPE and Languages. In 2023 we will begin implementing Version 9 of the Australian Curriculum. This rollout will start with Mathematics and English. The tenth Learning Area is Religion, where we follow the Brisbane Guidelines.  Curriculum content and achievement standards are made explicit within the Australian Curriculum. Primary Years staff are responsible for selecting the most suitable pedagogical approach for the students within their care. This ensures the best possible teaching and learning opportunities can occur at all times.

In the Secondary Years (Years 7-12):  The English Curriculum reflects the Australian Curriculum, which significantly emphasises language and literature. Our comprehensive English program focuses on skills to develop reading, writing, spelling, punctuation, grammar, and speaking.
