Developing deep questioning skills, articulation techniques and higher order thinking within the classroom.

In addition to offering a solid grounding in Mathematics and English, we use an Integrated Inquiry Approach to bring together the other learning disciplines mandated by the Australian national curriculum; Science, Humanities (History, Geography and Economics) Health and Physical Education, Information & Communication Technology, Civics and Citizenship, Personal Learning and Thinking Processes.

An inquiry-based classroom is a place where students are encouraged to search for answers to questions, create community links beyond the classroom, use technologies and develop deep understandings of the ideas embedded within the curriculum. Each term, teachers plan and implement Inquiry Unit/s, centred around broad concepts and understandings so that students will have the opportunity to develop deep questioning skills, articulation techniques and higher order thinking.
