Educating for the future
The learning journey at Mother Teresa honours the developmental stages in a student’s life. Based on leading educational research and the best of today’s technologies, we prepare students for the future by teaching them how to think critically and creatively, how to communicate effectively and how to lead and work both independently and collaboratively.
Educating for the future
The key learning areas
We follow the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) approved curriculum in the key learning areas of:
Religious education
As a Catholic school we also have a strong religious dimension that runs through all the KLAs and is also formally recognised as the KLA of Religious Education.
Mother Teresa students take part in formal Religious Education every day, based on the new Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese curriculum, Encountering Jesus. This curriculum invites all students to consider how the teachings of Jesus Christ can apply to their lives.
Religious education
Our aim is to provide educational programs that are relevant and meet the needs of each individual student. Our programs are designed to develop creative and compassionate lifelong learners. Mother Teresa Primary is a "sustainable school" incorporating environmentally active learning opportunities throughout the whole curriculum.
With a focus on learning in stage groups, teachers utilise cooperative learning strategies.
