Learning Spotlight

At Alice Smith Primary School, we aspire to spark courageous exploration to inspire a better world. We promote intercultural literacy and offer a wide range of learning opportunities. We nurture and support the best in every student.

We take note of children’s independent learning choices and interests and tailor the curriculum content to inspire and motivate each individual. This child-centred approach allows the teachers to ensure that every child is making good progress and building on previous learning experiences.

Ultimately, we want all of our students to grow into positive emotionally intelligent citizens, with a love for learning that will equip them for success in school - and beyond. Thank you for your ongoing support with your child’s wellbeing and learning.

 Parent Resources

• Please see the two videos here and here to help your child practise the letter sounds with your children.

Feedback and Suggestions

We encourage parents to share their thoughts and suggestions for the next term, fostering a culture of open communication. Here is the link for parent feedback. 

We are looking forward to a busy and fun-filled term and wish you and your child a very happy and successful year.

Please do not hesitate to contact your child’s class teacher if you have any questions.
