Learning approach
What matters in Foundation Phase
Literacy and language
Early reading, listening, vocabulary and self-expression through stories, phonics and conversations.
Number sense
Concrete exploration of numbers, shapes, patterns and everyday problems.
Learning through play
Hands-on activities, imagination, group discovery and purposeful classroom routines.
Social confidence
Friendship, independence, cooperation and the joy of discovering new things.

Play and discovery
The outdoors is a classroom too.
Young learners benefit from exploration, social interaction, physical play and supervised activities that help confidence grow.
Playground imagery is a design concept; facilities and supervision arrangements must be confirmed by the school.
Curriculum, assessment requirements and specific subject offerings should be confirmed by the school.
