Early Learning


Our Early Learning students are nurtured in an environment where curiosity, confidence and a strong sense of belonging are at the heart of learning.

From Kindergarten to Year 2, we provide a considered learning journey that supports each child’s academic, social, emotional and spiritual development. Grounded in the Science of Learning, our approach combines explicit teaching, evidence-based programs, purposeful play and authentic learning experiences to help every student thrive.

We offer exceptional indoor and outdoor learning environments where children are encouraged to explore, collaborate, problem-solve and develop as capable, independent learners. Located alongside Trigg Bushland, our students also benefit from unique opportunities to connect with nature through Bush School experiences.

Strong foundations in literacy, numeracy and oral language are developed through high-quality teaching and evidence-based programs that respond to individual strengths and needs. As students progress through the Early Years, learning experiences increase in complexity, independence and academic rigour, building the skills, confidence and resilience they need for future success.

We value each child as an individual and work in partnership with families to create a supportive community where every student feels known, connected and inspired to discover her best.
