Our Early Learning Philosophy
At Hollywood Primary School, we embed a play-based learning approach in conjunction with the explicit teaching of Literacy and Numeracy skills.
The staff at Hollywood PS promote and facilitate high quality teaching through the balance of child-directed activities and evidence-based programs.
By combining a play-based approach with explicit teaching this ensures a blended approach to teaching and learning which suits children in the early childhood contexts.
We provide a unique balance between children being active participants in their learning and allowing children to apply a new skill or knowledge in a hands-on, play based environment.
We encourage the child to take responsibility for growing and discovering their strengths by striving for excellence as self-directed learners.
Our approach encourages exploration, collaboration and an early love of learning.
