We support your child’s transition to school and set them up for success. Our focus is on building strong fundamentals in knowledge and skills while fostering confidence, independence, and a love of learning. Students explore the world through hands-on, engaging experiences and are supported to develop positive relationships and a strong sense of belonging.

 

​Literacy
Students develop early reading and writing skills through daily phonics instruction, learning to blend sounds, read words, and construct simple sentences. Rich literature and targeted teaching broaden vocabulary and comprehension, while guided practice nurtures confident young readers and storytellers.

 

Numeracy
Through hands-on exploration and visual representation, students build a strong understanding of numbers 0–10 and develop flexible mathematical thinking. Trusting the Count underpins all number work, helping children understand what numbers represent, how they relate to each other, and how they can be reconfigured.

​

Wellbeing
Foundation students focus on building friendships, understanding emotions, and learning how to respond kindly and safely in different situations. The Buddies Program pairs Foundation students with Grade 5 students, fostering meaningful connections and shared experiences.
