At Sorrento Grammar we believe that all children are capable and competent learners and that each child is a unique individual who possesses rights and responsibilities as an important and influential member of their community. We value children being confident and resilient and having the opportunity to become responsible and caring citizens. We believe that children will flourish in a learning environment where they and their families are welcomed, respected and have a strong sense of belonging: where there is a culture of safety to take risks in intellectual, social and physical challenges and where the joy and effort of learning is acknowledged by all. We will therefore work together with each child and his or her family to implement a play-based curriculum which will scaffold, stretch, make visible and celebrate their learning journey at kindergarten.
