Curriculum belief
We believe that children should be actively engaged in their learning and be given the opportunity to take ownership of it , which is why at Abbey we work with our students to plan a curriculum based on their interests. To provide memorable learning opportunities, we have introduced the 'Abbey Bucket List' , comprised of experiences that your child will have if they journey with us from Nursery to Year Six.
In addition, by working closely with our parents, we have developed a 'Soft Skills' * menu, focusing on essential work skills s uch as decision-making, leadership, creativity, problem- solving, teamwork, responsibility and communication.
We also have a ' Life Skills' list which includes activities such as catching the bus, making an emergency call, performing basic first aid, making a hot drink, cooking, putting away clothes, brushing teeth, handwashing, road safety and wearing seatbelts. Our goal is to create a broad and balanced curriculum that inspires, motivates and caters to the needs of our community *Soft skills is a term often associated with a person's "EQ" (Emotional Intelligence Quotient), the cluster of personality traits, social graces, communication, language, personal habits, interpersonal skills, managing people, leadership, etc. that characterise relationships with other people.
