Lower Primary at Quintilian School allows students to build on the foundations that have been established in the early years.

  • Our teachers continue to focus on developing children’s social, emotional and interpersonal skills.
  • Key academic concepts of literacy and numeracy are supplemented with other specialist curriculum areas of science, arts, music, physical education and technologies, woven together into an inquiry-based curriculum.
  • Teachers deliver individualised, small-group and whole-class teaching, ensuring that students are taught at their precise ability level, including support for those who need to catch up, and extension for those who need an extra challenge.
  • Opportunities for collaborative and independent work, flexible classroom spaces and regular excursions ignite a joy for learning.
  • Experiences in nature, through the Outdoor Classroom program or the school’s sustainable partnerships with the Friends of Lake Claremont, connect indoor learning with its real-world impacts.
  • Independence is developed with the first away-from-home school camp.
  • Students can enjoy various outside-school activities, such as sporting clubs, Lego, private music tuition, and more.
