Preparatory

In 2021, Scots All Saints College opened a modern Preparatory School, purpose built on our Junior School Campus, Eglinton Road. With unrivalled space, access to specialist facilities, teachers and classes, your child will thrive in a nurturing and inspiring preparatory school environment.

The Scots All Saints College Prep School forms an integral part of our educational offering, providing 4 and 5 year olds with an outstanding foundation for future learning. Our experienced teachers offer opportunities to challenge, inspire and motivate children to explore and learn in confidence while developing their social and emotional intelligence in a supportive environment.

Our Preparatory School Framework has been developed by our academic team, based on evidence-informed research and practice. We know that children who experience a smooth and harmonious transition between early childhood and primary school settings have greater confidence and future success – socially, emotionally and academically.

Purpose-built In Our Junior School Setting
Our new Prep School sits on approximately one acre of land with a purpose-built playground and nature play area, bike path, play equipment and vegetable garden. Our facilities have been designed to ensure a well-rounded program for the development of the whole child.

With access to Junior School resources and facilities, our Prep School children enjoy the on campus farm, sports ovals, library and seamless connection to the Junior School Campus.

The Scots All Saints College Preparatory School is conveniently located for parent drop-off and pick-ups, with access to a Preparatory School car park straight through the roundabout on the Junior School Campus.

The Preparatory School currently offers 2, 3, 4 and 5 day options.

If you are interested in learning more or organise a campus tour, please contact our Registrar, Mrs Lisa Ellery on 6333 4726 or email enrol@scotsallsaints.nsw.edu.au

Learning at Scots All Saints

Learning
At the Scots All Saints College Junior School we offer comprehensive and engaging literacy and numeracy programs. Key programs and units are developed to ensure your child gets off to a great start, academically. Staff use a range of skills, programs and tools to track growth, inform and guide lesson and curriculum planning and determine support or extension requirements for individual students.

As we build these foundational skills in literacy and numeracy, we also offer a broad range of subjects including Science and Technology, HSIE (History and Geography), Personal Development and Health, Physical Education, Creative and Performing Arts, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), Christian Studies and Languages, many of which are taught by specialist teachers in purpose built classrooms. Through these subjects we aim to develop creativity, collaboration, communication and critical thinking skills.

Our extensive Creative and Performing Arts programs will captivate and nurture your child’s love of music and the arts.

The Junior School Music Program is coordinated by Mr Jon Clipsham, with the assistance of fourteen professional instrumentalists and educators. All students receive weekly music lessons with specialist teachers.

Junior School students are invited to join the Junior String program, selecting the violin, viola, cello or bass. Students learn to play their instrument as a soloist and in small and large ensembles, improving fine and gross motor skills, developing coordination, intonation, rhythmic accuracy, notation reading and ensemble awareness.

Students can join the Concert Band program selecting a flute, oboe, clarinet, bass clarinet, bassoon, alto and tenor saxophone, trumpet, French horn, euphonium, trombone, tuba, string bass or percussion. Individual instrument lessons are strongly encouraged to enhance a student’s learning and musical development.

Our Junior School students take part in our annual Junior School Musical.

In Visual Arts, students will enjoy expressing themselves creatively, using a range of techniques, forms, elements, subject matter and media whilst developing an appreciation of the work of well known artists. In Term 1, all students undertake a unit of work as part of the IPSHA Travelling Art Show. All work is displayed at our Junior School Art Exhibition.
