Educational Philosophy

At St Michael's Primary School:

We hold the child at the heart of everything we do. 

We believe in nurturing the whole child: their social, emotional, physical, academic and spiritual growth.

We believe all students can maximise their learning when high expectations and challenge are present.

We believe student learning best happens when evidence-informed and high-impact pedagogical strategies -  explicit and direct instruction with gradual release as student knowledge and skills increase are utilised by educators, student learning is knowledge-rich and differentiated to their needs.

We believe education is a collaborative experience. Students, teachers and families work together so everyone at St. Michael's can flourish and reach their full potential.

St. Michael's Primary School provides a child-safe environment, where all students have the right to be treated with respect and dignity, and will be protected from harm.

The Sandhurst Catholic Education Office and Schools acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which their Offices and Schools are built. We commit to working in partnership with Aboriginal people for reconciliation and justice.
