Learning Program
The basic skills and foundations for future learning, together with attitudes, values and, most importantly, the desire for learning, are all cultivated at Moyhu Primary School.
Our learning curriculum is created using the framework of the Victorian curriculum. The curriculum is the common set of knowledge and skills required by students for life-long learning, social development, and active and informed citizenship.
As a small school we value each student as an individual by understanding their current abilities, strengths, and areas for improvement. We target & differentiate our learning programs to either small group, individual or modified tasks to ensure we meet each child at their point of learning.
