Primary 3 – 6

Grades 3-6 follow a similar format to the K-2 class, allowing for shared experiences and activities at certain times, such as Chapel and assemblies. Grades 3-6 kick off their learning in the morning with a focus on literacy, strengthening a wide range of communication skills. Morning tea provides an opportunity to refuel and release some energy with friends before tackling numeracy based challenges before lunch. These are explored using investigations of real world issues, providing the chance to work collaboratively to solve complex and authentic problems, with a blend of concrete tasks and technology based activities. After an action packed lunch break, the 3-6s use their allocated Golden Time to inquire deeply about areas of interest, across a wide variety of topics, whether that’s Science, History, Music or Drama, as well as further physically based games. Rotations play a strong role in the class, allowing students more targeted time with the teacher and helping to grow students’ personal sense of responsibility, resilience and skills in collaboration. Through an integrated approach, the 3-6s develop a strong depth of character, whilst being nurtured to flourish academically, equipping them for high school and beyond.
