ADVERTORIAL
Last week the students at St Clare’s were very excited to participate in their Annual Fun Run using the new extension to the playground for the very first time.
The students have been patiently watching the progress of the architecturally designed playground for over a year. The new area includes a ropes course, soccer and football field, shade and cover seating areas, passive play spaces and plenty of new grass where students can run.
This area provides a great facility for Physical Education lessons and opportunities for shared learning experiences in a beautiful outdoor environment. Further developments include an Indigenous Garden and outdoor classroom. This is due for completion in the next few months.
St Clare’s students are particularly enjoying exploring the ‘Ninja’ playground and surrounding play areas.
At St Clare’s they nurture the holistic development of each child. For the St Clare’s family, numeracy and literacy skills are core elements of education; but so is Religious Education – developing empathy, social justice and a strong moral compass. They encourage active play and healthy bodies; understanding other cultures through learning languages; and the confidence that comes with developing creativity through the performing and visual arts.
Student achievement is measured not only by academic growth but by each child’s emotional, social and spiritual wellbeing. Being part of faith-filled community instils our students with a sense of identity, a feeling of belonging and above all, a powerful sense of self-worth.
At St Clare’s their aim is to have each child reach their potential; to be a well-rounded individual – within a supportive and caring learning environment.
