Thiele Primary School is one of three schools that create the Aberfoyle Park Primary School Campus and together we provide a range of excellent facilities and programs. Our goal is to ensure that our students become independent, lifelong learners and productive, well-informed citizens. We ensure that there is a positive learning environment where our students will learn to read, write and become skilled in each of the areas of the curriculum. During their time at school they will access, interpret, analyse, produce, evaluate and communicate information on a variety of concepts, problems or issues in a wide range of formats. They will become effective users and producers of ideas and information. Students will learn to define tasks, create quality products, and evaluate processes using high order thinking skills. They will become proficient in the use of technological tools to make sense of the ever-expanding network of information. Interactive whiteboards, top end computers, digital video cameras, inquiry software are just some of the tools available for all students from reception to year seven. Students will also become avid readers who will appreciate and interpret a wide range of literature which will give them a rich understanding of the world around them. In order to help students flourish in this learning community, I encourage all families to be part of their children's learning experiences. Through the collaboration of staff, students, and families, our goal can be realized. Therefore, we hope to continue to strengthen our school/home partnership, in order to provide an excellent learning program.
