Curriculum
The curriculum includes everything students experience from the moment they arrive at school in the morning until they leave at the end of the day. Warlawurru Catholic School follows the Western Australia Curriculum for Kindergarten to Year Six.
In accordance with the School Curriculum and Standards Authority Act, 1997, the Western Australian Curriculum and Assessment Outline (Outline) sets out ‘the knowledge, understanding, skills, values and attitudes that students are expected to acquire and guidelines for the assessment of student achievement’.
We believe that students learn best:
- When there is a strong, positive and respectful relationship between teacher, student and families.
- When we provide a stimulating curriculum relating to real world experiences, promoting agency, independence and resilience.
- When they are provided with high expectations and can articulate their learning intentions, success criteria and goals.
- When they engage with on country experiences which help them connect with the land, culture, and stories of First Nations peoples.
- When the learning starts where the child is at, is collaborative, purposeful and scaffolded.
- When teachers provide explicit feedback designed to support their further learning and understanding.
When they are engaged and supported to take learning risks and have a go.
