ENGLISH

English Curriculum

Our English lessons include carefully planned and taught activities that cater for the individual literacy learning needs of the children. This program ensures that the children are given every opportunity to be able to read and write to a high standard. A two hour literacy block enables us to plan programs that build on children’s existing knowledge and extend their knowledge.

We provide contexts for learning that enable children to develop control over written language and enjoy using it, so that they can interact effectively in a literate society.  We teach a range of writing genre - recount; narrative; information report; persuasive exposition; explanation; procedure.  

Our program is one in which reading, writing, speaking and listening are integrated in a supportive and stimulating environment in which independent and reflective critical thinking is fostered.
