St Therese’s follows an Integrated Inquiry approach from Year Prep to Six.
Our Inquiry approach embraces the philosophy of lifelong learning. It endeavours to support the development of strategies to develop thinking processes, research skills, collaboration, independence and positive learning dispositions.
An inquiry approach is used across many of the learning areas of the Victorian Curriculum, including: History, Geography, Science, Health, Design Technologies, Personal and Social Capability, Ethical Capability, Intercultural Capability and Critical and Creative Thinking.
Where possible we strive to make the learning relevant and meaningful for students and helps them make connections to their own world. Students are supported to process information and respond to their new knowledge. The goal is to develop and empower the potential of all students to participate and contribute in their community and the contemporary world.
