Two programs operate within the school:
    FOUNDATIONS - for children Birth - 3 years held on Mondays from 1.30 - 3:00 p.m.
    STEPPING STONES - for children who will be attending Kindergarten in 2009.  Held on Wednesdays from 1:30 - 3:00pm

SPECIALIST LESSONS
All classes have one Music, one Library and two Physical Education lessons each week.  An ICT (Computer) lesson is also provided for Grade 1/2 and 2/3 classes this year.

We recognise the importance of the physical development of children.  To this end we have resourced each classroom with additional equipment and programs for each class to run a Perceptual Motor Program.  This is run by classroom teachers with parent participation.
