Year 1 is the continuation of an exciting Foundation year. We provide a creative,supportive and productive environment that nurtures and promotes the physical, social, emotional and cognitive development of each student.
Students develop learning independence throughout the year and become more capable in literacy and numeracy.The children are engaged in differentiated learning experiences, focused on their ability. These activities cover all areas of the curriculum.
The Reading Intervention program is available for selected Year 1 students, who require specific literacy skill intervention strategies.
We offer many exciting incursions and excursions that link to our main area of investigation for the term.
Our school student well being program is based on the Resilience, Rights & Respectful relationships program. We teach mindfulness strategies and our students continue to develop social, emotional and positive relationship skills.
The coding program teaches Scratch junior and lego We Do, a program that teaches technology through constructing models and bringing them to life.
Our 'Swim and Survive' program at the Monash Aquatic centre is well attended, as learning to swim confidently is an essential survival skill.
Other activities will be placed on the Year 1 blog, as they occur.
Parents are most welcome to help in our classrooms, in the library, on excursions and camps and on our parent group committee and School Council committees.
All parents who assist in any way must have a Working With Children Check. This card must be presented at the office when parents sign in
