Core Learning Areas

​

At Lindenow Primary School, we use the Victorian Curriculum F–10 to plan and implement learning programs across all year levels. Our curriculum covers the following key learning areas:

• Mathematics: Number & Algebra, Measurement & Geometry, Statistics & Probability

• English: Reading & Viewing, Writing, Speaking & Listening

• Science

• History

• Health and the Humanities: including Civics and Citizenship, Economics and Business, and Geography

Our programs are designed to provide a comprehensive and engaging learning experience that develops knowledge, skills, and a love of learning in every student.

​

Literacy and Numeracy Focus

​

Literacy and Numeracy are the core areas of our curriculum, with a strong focus on building foundations in the early years, particularly Prep to Grade 2.

To support every student, we provide:

• Targeted one-to-one support

• A structured take-home reader program

• Opportunities to work with a Speech Pathologist, where needed

Our goal is to ensure that every child develops strong skills in reading, writing, speaking, and mathematics, setting them up for ongoing success across all areas of learning.

​

KidSpeak Curriculum

​

To help students understand their learning journey, our teachers have developed a unique ‘KidSpeak’ version of the Victorian Curriculum.

This child-friendly document outlines learning goals and expectations in language that students can easily understand and relate to, empowering them to take an active role in their own learning.

​

Individualised Teaching

​

At Lindenow Primary School, we believe that every child learns differently. Our teachers tailor their approach to meet the individual needs, interests, and learning styles of each student, supporting both their strengths and areas for growth.
