Learning

At River Gum Primary School, we place the learner at the centre of everything we do, supporting each student to be active, confident, and engaged in their learning. Guided by the Victorian Teaching and Learning Model (VTLM 2.0), we design learning experiences that connect to students’ prior knowledge, build new understanding through clear and explicit teaching, and provide opportunities to practise, apply, and reflect on their learning.

Students are encouraged to think deeply, ask questions, and actively participate in every lesson, helping them stay motivated and involved. Through supportive relationships, clear expectations, and responsive teaching, we create an environment where every learner feels safe, challenged, and capable of success.
