All subjects from the Children’s House are greatly expanded in the primary. Research is an important aspect of the Primary classrooms and the children explore alone in cooperative groups and as a class such subjects as astronomy geology physics evolution biology and history. As they study the children begin to perceive the links between these fields and often find that new areas of study open for them. Mathematics and language also form a pivotal part of the child’s experiences and learning. Concrete Montessori materials facilitate understanding while a full curriculum embracing all of the elements of a traditional curriculum approaching them from a Montessori perspective.

Students in Years 7 and 8 study all mandatory Board of Studies subjects. All subjects are studied in a two-year cycle except mathematics where each student is on an individual program and Italian where subjects are offered in year groups. Students in Years 9 and 10 are offered electives in addition to the mandatory Board of Studies subjects. Electives generally offer students the opportunity to pursue and consolidate their interest and skill in a particular area of learning.
