This is done in a caring environment that respects the rights of all members and recognises that children are our prime consideration. The following, referred to as Over-Arching Outcomes, are the characteristics or attributes we want our students to develop. Students use language to understand, develop and communicate ideas and information and interact with others. Students select, integrate and apply numerical and spatial concepts and techniques. Students recognise when and what information is needed, locate and obtain it from a range of sources and evaluate, use and share it with others.
Students select, use and adapt technologies.
Students describe and reason about patterns, structures and relationships in order to understand, interpret, justify and make predictions. Students visualise consequences, think laterally, recognise opportunity and potential and are prepared to test options 7. Students understand and appreciate the physical, biological and technological world and have the knowledge and skills to make decisions in relation to it. The purpose of Marmion Primary School is to maximise each child s potential academically, socially, emotionally and physically. This will be achieved in a happy, caring and stimulating environment and with the mutual commitment, support and co-operation of teachers, parents and students .
