YEAR 3
TO YEAR 5
As our students grow, we continue to deliver the mandatory Australian Curriculum content; however, the methods used to deliver it focus on developing, consolidating and extending independent learning skills through close links with the Round Square IDEALS and our Learner Attributes.
Leadership is celebrated, developed and practised. The Scotch Oakburn College Year 5 Leadership program is unique as it nurtures personal confidence, resilience and interpersonal skills, and prepares students to transition to Year 6 and the Middle School.
A Considered Timetable
Our structured Junior School timetable allows for school days where your child can dive deep into learning without unnecessary interruptions, where they have dedicated times to play, explore, and connect with friends, and where lunch becomes a shared moment of community.
Our timetable is the result of listening to student, staff and parent feedback, with considered thought for what truly benefits our students. By providing longer, uninterrupted blocks of learning time, students have the space to engage fully with their studies. At the same time, structured playtimes ensure they return to the classroom refreshed and ready to learn. Communal lunchtimes strengthen the bonds between our students, creating a supportive and connected school community.
Specialist Subjects
We understand the importance of consistency and the value of hands-on experiences in education. Our specialist subjects have been carefully chosen to be age appropriate and offer more practical, engaging learning opportunities that make education come alive. Furthermore, our specialist subjects will support our mission to provide a holistic educational experience for our students. We ensure that every child benefits from a stable and continuous learning environment, where familiar faces guide them through new and exciting challenges.
