Where Students flourish and feel confident
Intentionally Structured
Your child's learning journey is intentionally structured through three developmental phases.
Each stage builds on the previous one, supporting her academic growth, social-emotional development and emerging sense of identity.

Prep to Year 2
The early learning years mark a time in which your child is establishing herself as a learner while developing independence and resilience. A love of learning is nurtured, and strong friendships and bonds with peers and teachers develop. Students are encouraged to take risks with their learning while setting and achieving personalized goals. The early years are a time of transitioning to school, where students are developing in the areas of curiosity, cooperation, confidence, creativity, commitment, enthusiasm, persistence, imagination and reflexivity. Children are exploring a range of skills and processes, such as problem-solving, enquiry, experimentation, hypothesizing, researching and investigating. And your child is beginning to understand how they can transfer and adapt what they have learnt in one learning experience to another. Valora's many varied learning experiences will ignite a passion for learning as your child connects with people, places, technologies and the use of natural and processed materials. This is a time when students are developing who they are as they learn to share, take-turns, collaborate and develop relationships.
