Learning at RNPS
At Ringwood North PS we understand that your child deserves the very best quality education. We know that each child is a unique individual who will learn and grow in different ways and at different rates throughout their schooling. Our teachers are dynamic, committed and caring. We have a proud history of innovation in the school and are at the forefront of best practice in technology and next generation skills. At RNPS your child will find learning fun, exciting and challenging.
Literacy
Literacy learning takes place daily in the mornings at RNPS. Teachers use the school-wide model for teaching reading and writing to target the specific needs of each child, regardless of their age. We use a structured phonics and phonological awareness approach from Prep to Year 6 to develop students’ skills in reading and spelling. Students develop a love of reading through the Junior and Senior libraries.
Numeracy
Numeracy is taught daily throughout the school, with a focus on developing students’ conceptual understanding through hands-on, applied learning. Students are challenged to take their lessons beyond the page and use their learning in a range of scenarios that require problem solving and design skills. These skills are then transferred into even broader real-world applications through our Challenge Based Learning approach.
