middle school curriculum overview

Middle School Year 5 to Year 8

As students progress into the Middle School they continue to build on their learning experiences in the core areas of the curriculum. We maintain our focus on Literacy and Numeracy. Students continue to experience a strong sense of belonging as a significant proportion of their academically rigorous program is taught by their Home Group teacher. At the same time, our early adolescents begin to develop a greater sense of themselves as individuals and as learners. Engaging projects and problem-solving challenges across all areas of the curriculum enable students to make stronger connections with the world around them. The choices available within our language program give students more opportunities to learn alongside peers who are based in other classes. A wider range of programs in areas including Technology and the Arts exposes students increasingly to hands-on learning and the challenges of teamwork.
