- Regular standardized testing to identify needs.

- Specialist Staff for areas such as French, Music and Physical Education.
- Extracurricular activities such as choirs, instrumental music and singing, robotics, inter-school sport.
- Quality facilities designed to support and enhance student learning
OUR COMMUNITY…
At GCCC our vision for the Primary College reflects our desire to create a sense of community and will facilitate:
- A smooth transition from Prep to Year 1 (Prep students are a part of our College life from day one)
- A smooth transition from Primary to Secondary (Year 7 is the foundation year for Middle School)
- Continuity of standards and ethos for students
- A sense of family between older and younger students (less bullying)
Our Focus in Primary (YEARS 1-6):
- Establishing foundational skills in Numeracy and Literacy (securely laid in Years 1-3) and developed further in Years 4-6)
- Creating a love of learning and personal excellence
- Developing academic discipline
- Discovering individual strengths and addressing weaknesses
- Making friends and keeping it FUN!
WORKING TOGETHER..
Our parents are committed to working together with us, and this commitment is evidenced by the level of parent involvement in College life. What our parents have said:
“We have seen such a change in our friends’ children that we want to enrol our children now.”
“The teaching staff is so great, I would be happy for my child to have any of these teachers.”
“I wish we had enrolled our children before this.”
“We love the standards here. Your discipline and uniform policy is exactly what we want for our children.”
“I can’t believe the change in our son since he started Prep. He loves the activities and he’s become a little gentleman.”
