My first year at school: Preps 2025

On Tuesday February 4 St Paul’s preps took their first steps on their seven-year primary school journey; a journey of excitement, discovery and growth.

They have become part of a close-knit community where every child is known, valued and inspired and where individuality thrives and connections run deep.

Guided by caring and nurturing teachers, the preps have found a second home, filled with warmth, opportunity and care, where their families are becoming friends. In

smaller class sizes, their teachers have begun to tailor learning to their specific needs, celebrated strengths and gently guided challenges.

Through interactive activities and play-based learning they have begun to develop essential social skills, as well as build friendships that may well last a lifetime. With a focus on fostering curiosity and a love for learning, Term One at St Paul’s should set a solid foundation for their academic success and personal development throughout their life-long learning journey
