Preshil began in 1931 when Margaret Lyttle began teaching students in her living room in Kew. Margaret Lyttle was made a Member of the Order of Australia in 1989 for her services to education.

**Kindergarten and Primary School Curriculum**

Early childhood is a time for powerful experiences that forever fuel the imagination of the scientist, artist, author, philosopher, and builder — experiences that children carry into their future as a core of inspiration, confidence and creativity. Happenings in the early years become lifelong, life-shaping lessons.

A journey that starts at Preshil has endless potential. Literacy and Numeracy complement specialist programs of French, Art, Music and Physical Education, and our children are guided through activities that nourish their personal and academic development.

Our Primary School curriculum is underpinned by high expectations for every child; challenging and encouraging them while respecting difference and individuality. Both personal and collaborative projects promote creativity and imaginative thinking, and there is time allocated for uninterrupted play.

The International Baccalaureate PYP is a framework that allows Preshil to develop a contemporary and progressive curriculum. The framework focusses on qualities underpinning successful learning for each child; rich understanding at the conceptual level, building of specific discipline-based knowledge,and the demonstration of increasingly sophisticated skills across all learning areas. The PYP is based on the core belief that knowledge is constructed and that this construction is most effectively done when each child is engaged, appropriately challenged, and has a voice in how their understanding will be assessed. At Preshil we believe that such learning can only succeed when there is a close relationship of trust between child and teacher; emphasis is placed on the role of building deep, respectful social relationships as the primary building block of personal interactions.

**Secondary School Curriculum**

The DP (Years 11 and 12) allows creation of greater coherence between our values and practice. Like Preshil, the DP understands that for education to be truly valuable, it must address the needs of the whole person and not simply the academic entity. By cultivating self-reflection, foregrounding interconnectedness through collaborative learning and community engagement, and encouraging students to pursue their passions and interests, the DP provides students with a meaningful educational experience, one that is responsive to their needs and will equip them to be active, contributing members of a global community.

Preshil students are challenged to set goals that support them to reach their academic potential. The IB Learner Profile emphasises the development of the whole person, actively cultivating the attributes of our students as inquirers; knowledgeable thinkers and communicators who are principled, open-minded, caring, courageous, balanced and reflective; global citizens with an awareness of their common humanity.

**School ethos**

At our core remains an unshakeable commitment to encourage all children to progress at their own pace towards their own goals and to be respected as individuals in their own right. Preshil is committed to nurturing and challenging our children in an atmosphere that inspires creativity and independent thinking in all areas of life. The school, neither overtly nor subtly, uses competition or punishment to motivate through the fear of failure. As global citizens, we promote an awareness of world issues and encourage effort to create positive change. We believe that education should prepare students to be thoughtful, peace-loving and active citizens of the world.
