Years One to Six

The education of our students encompasses not only what is explicitly taught in the classrooms but also the values and attitudes that are modeled by senior students, school staff and parents.

Our staff members are hand-picked on the basis of their passion for working with children, their knowledge of teaching and learning and their commitment to our faith.

We believe that every child is unique, having his or her individual strengths, interests and needs. Teachers tailor their instruction to meet the needs of all students. In addition, Education Assistants are employed in all classes up to Year One to support the teaching program. Solid foundations are essential for development of all facets of a child’s character and being.

A nurturing classroom environment is a feature of Our Lady of Grace School where we aim to maximize the opportunities for individual attention. We are blessed with a very active parent community with high levels of parent engagement in school life. On any day you will find many parents helping in classrooms and other aspects of school life, further enhancing the learning of our students.

The curriculum at Our Lady of Grace is based on the WA Bishop’s Religious Education units and the Western Australian Curriculum – these are mandated by the Schools’ Curriculum and Standards Authority of WA. We aim for a balanced education and while vitally interested in achieving academic excellence according to each child’s abilities, we are equally concerned with the children’s social and emotional wellbeing.
