In their first year of school, students learn through teaching interactions with others, experimentation, practice and play in the classroom and school community. Priority is given to literacy and numeracy development as these are the foundations upon which further learning is built. Opportunities to develop literacy and numeracy are found in all subjects but particularly in English and Mathematics. Learning in a classroom and belonging to a school community are key to the first year at school.
Prep provides the foundation for your child's success at school by developing:
a positive approach to learning
independence and confidence
thinking and problem-solving skills
language skills
early literacy and numeracy
physical abilities, including motor skills.
