Welcome Parents/Guardians

Starting school is an exciting time for both children and parents. At Oak Park Primary School we strive to ensure that our Foundation students feel comfortable in their learning environment and are eager to learn from their very first day at school. We aim to meet the needs of all our students by providing a stimulating and engaging curriculum which includes real-world learning experiences to further develop curiosity and understanding within our students.

Our classroom based programs focus on Literacy, Oral Language, Numeracy and Challenge Based Learning. In addition to these students are also involved in:

• Weekly specialist programs of Physical Education, Visual Arts, Japanese and visit to the school library.
• An Extensive Transition Program. Four Sessions are held in Term Four to introduce students to the school and learning environment.
• Buddy Program with Grade Six students. Each Foundation child is paired up with a Grade Six child to form friendship, meet and complete activities together in the classroom and sometimes play with each other in the breaks.
• 1:1 BYO iPad Program
• A range of Incursions and Excursions throughout the year to further develop students' knowledge on rage of topics.
• Each student is presented with a Student Learning Record (SLR Portfolio) each semester. The SLR Portfolio contains work samples which illustrate the students learning across the curriculum.
