Curriculum
Pedagogy
The Walker Learning Approach is based upon decades of research about play-based and personalised learning and social constructivism. It is a total approach to teaching and learning which combines the need for children to be active participants in their learning (through hands-on and creative exploration and investigation) which sits alongside formal instruction. There is explicit teaching and development of not only literacy and numeracy skills and knowledge, but also the range of vital social, emotional and life skills.
Assessment
Assessment FOR learning – occurs when teachers use inferences about student progress to inform their teaching.
Assessment AS learning – occurs when students reflect on and monitor their progress to inform their future learning goals.
Assessment OF learning – occurs when teachers use evidence of student learning to make judgements on student achievement against goals and standards.
Reporting
Reports are issued to parents/carers twice per year using a five-point rating scale to show student progress and achievement. Student Conference Reports are also completed each term to demonstrate student goal-setting and reflection.

On Monday 19th June, Canadian Lead Primary School was fortunate to be visited by athletes representing the Sri Chinmoy International Peace Run on its journey around Australia, from Brisbane to Adelaide. The Peace run is a global torch relay that unites thousands of communities and millions of people in over 100 countries. The aim of the Peace run is to spread goodwill and peace among people of all nations. All of our students were able to hold the torch and we followed the athletes as the travelled around our school. Our students with the support of ES staff member, Fiona Dodd created a whole school artwork that was presented to the athletes and will be taking to Rome for the closing ceremony of the peace run. The key message to emerge from this opportunity was that Peace starts in the heart of every child, similarly to our school motto of developing the head, heart and hands of every student.
