ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
PREP – GRADE 5 (5 - 10 years)


 

     Entering the Elementary School is a natural progression for children graduating from our two year Kindergarten program (K1 - KII).  The Elementary section is licensed to offer a comprehensive education from Prep-Grade through to Grade Six. This year we are offering six elementary classes from Prep-Grade to Grade 6 for students aged 6 to 11 years.  Next year we plan to open a new class to provide for the continuity and stability in education that our children need and that you expect.  We recognize that the first years of schooling are extremely important to ensure the future success in later life. 

     All of our teachers are well qualified and committed to a high standard of learning and teaching that responds to the student's needs and closely monitors the individual's progress with an emphasis on stimulating the gifted and assisting the children experiencing difficulties.  

     The curriculum covers a comprehensive and extensive range of subjects focusing on the core learning areas of English, Health and Physical Education, Language other than English (Vietnamese), Math, Science, Study of Societies and Environment, Technology and the Arts.  The emphasis is based on developing social and co-operative skills to produce well-rounded students for success in the years ahead. 

     The Elementary classes place a strong emphasis on the English Language. A special ESL program is offered for non-English speakers.  The curriculum is designed to enhance and extend children's acquisition of English through a broad range of language experiences.  We provide a supportive, language-situated environment that stimulates the rapid acquisition of the English language. The multi-cultural character of our classes is valued and incorporated into the program to cater for English speaking, the limited English speaking and non-English speaking students. A study of Vietnamese language and society is included to enhance the multicultural aspect of our school. The Vietnamese unit of our curriculum commences in Grade 1. Modifications are made to accommodate the diverse   international population of our school.
