By connecting to the real world of students’ lives, authentic learning enables students to become lifelong learners who contribute to society and the wider world as active and discerning citizens. Authentic learning is central to our work as Catholic educators because it promotes the continual growth and wellbeing of the whole person — spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, socially and physically.
Here at St John Vianney, we are a ‘Habit of Mind’ school. Principal, Merit and Habit of Mind awards are regularly given. All students are encouraged to set their individual learning goals at the beginning of each term. We have an excellent transition program operating to ensure a smooth transition from preschool to school, including an onsite playgroup program.
