Primary - Core Curriculum...

Reception to Year 6

A complete Primary Education is offered at both the Victor Harbor and Goolwa Campuses of Investigator College.

Children are encouraged to explore and develop a love of learning in the Primary years. This lays the foundation for learning for the rest of their lives. An essential component of this stage of schooling at Investigator College is the explicit teaching in Literacy and Numeracy. Learning occurs within a stimulating 'hands on' environment that encourages discovery through play and active participation.
