Learning and Teaching at Our Lady Help of Christians School

At Our Lady Help of Christians School, we believe that learning is a lifelong journey that begins with curiosity and is nurtured through care, creativity and challenge. Grounded in our Gospel values of Respect, Love, Mercy and Community, we are committed to providing a rich and engaging education that empowers every student to flourish.

Our approach to learning and teaching is student-centred, inclusive and future-focused, ensuring that all learners are supported to grow academically, spiritually, socially and emotionally.

We recognise that every child learns differently. Through ongoing assessment and data-informed teaching, we tailor learning experiences to meet individual needs and celebrate student growth.

Our teachers use a variety of strategies to:

  • Differentiate instruction
  • Set clear learning goals
  • Provide timely feedback
  • Encourage student voice and agency

In addition to core learning areas, students engage in a range of specialist subjects that enrich their educational experience, including:

  • The Arts (Visual Arts, Music, Drama, Dance)
  • Health and Physical Education
  • Digital Technologies

These programs are designed to spark curiosity, build skills and foster creativity.

Faith and Formation

As a Catholic school, faith is woven into every aspect of our learning. Students participate in religious education, liturgies, prayer and social justice initiatives that help them grow in faith and live out the teachings of Jesus.

We aim to nurture compassionate, reflective and responsible citizens who live with purpose and integrity.

Partnerships in Learning

We believe that strong partnerships between home and school are essential to student success. We work closely with families to support learning, celebrate achievements and build a shared vision for each child’s future.

Through open communication, parent engagement and community involvement, we create a learning environment where everyone belongs.
