John XXIII Catholic Primary is part of the Catholic Learning Community of Blessed John the XXIII, which is a Kindergarten to Year 12 Educational Precinct. On one campus, we provide educational opportunities from the early years of schooling, through to primary and secondary schooling. As a Catholic primary school, we live the mission, vision and values of Catholic education as expressed through the charism of Pope John XXIII. Our students and staff are happy, welcoming and hope-filled. Nurturing Hope for the Future is the motto that guides our community. The Eucharist is the source and summit of the Christian life and is at the centre of our spiritual and sacramental lives. Learning opportunities at John XXIII are many and diverse, designed to meet the interests and developmental needs of all students. Programs are intentionally directed to the growth of the whole person, with students being encouraged to ask constantly ‘how?’ and ’why?’, as well as 'what?'. The primary curriculum is founded on the beliefs that learning should be personalised for each student, producing literate, numerate and creative learners. We strive to improve the learning outcomes for every student and encourage resilience and collaboration. Students entering Kindergarten are encouraged to learn through creative and developmental play. As they progress through the primary grades, independence and challenge-based learning principles are encouraged. Positive student–teacher relationships are important, so that students become risk-takers within safe and secure settings. Enrichment and extension activities support students with special needs and our large learning support team works with teachers and students in improving the learning outcomes for every child. Technology and the physical environment play a pivotal role. The school has been designed to be open, comfortable and flexible, promoting creativity and collaboration. Resources, which are moveable and accessible, enliven the teaching spaces and the learning taking place..
