Project-Oriented

Project-oriented activity is a primary vehicle for study in the junior years, through which multiple curriculum subjects are explored and researched. We believe learning by doing leads to a deeper understanding of what is being studied.

The topic ‘Space and Place’, for example, provides simultaneous opportunities to explore cultural and historical elements around housing, mathematical constructs around building, environment and stories about home.

It is through collaboration and interactions with others that the children develop and explore their theories of the world. Children engage in both practical and technical learning with academic rigour. They develop essential skills in problem solving, cooperation and learning from each other and are able to think things through rather than waiting to be spoon-fed the answers.
