This involves developing the skills needed to read widely with understanding and enjoyment. We will teach your child to spell accurately and to write in a variety of forms. All students are taught to understand the function of language and to listen and communicate effectively in a variety of situations.

Mathematics in the Junior School involves learning the basics of number, space and measurement. Your child will learn many aspects of developing, calculating, reasoning, predicting and verifying skills.

This area involves learning skills of enquiry, investigation, designing and problem solving. Your child will gain knowledge and understanding about the natural and modified environments and people's interaction with them.

All students will gain knowledge and understanding about the history of Australia, its geography, social institutions and place in the world. Your child will also be given opportunities to compare and appreciate religious and moral beliefs of other cultures.

Creative Arts is a vital Key Learning Area. This involves developing technical competence and skills in design and performance. Your child will learn appreciation and self-expression in visual and practical arts. Music is an integral part of our week at Kinross Wolaroi School. All children take part in the choirs while our Strings Group and Ensembles continue to grow in numbers and musical strength. Their performance work continues to receive high praise. Involvement in drama and musicals is compulsory for all children. Students learn to perform on stage and gain great confidence from their involvement in the performances.

PDHPE involves learning to develop an active, healthy lifestyle. We will teach your child to develop skills they can utilise in inter-personal relationships while also developing positive values, attitudes and beliefs. This is combined with participation in regular physical activity. Participation in sport is compulsory from Year 3 and actively encouraged in the younger years. We strongly believe that a healthy body leads to a healthy mind and our students certainly lead active and healthy lifestyles through their involvement in sport.

Being a member of sporting teams is compulsory for all students from Years 3 to 6. Our Year 1 and Year 2 students have the option of being part of our winter sporting teams and historically around 85% take up the option.

In summer the following sports are played, depending on students' age: tennis, swimming, cricket, triathlon, touch football and basketball. Teams are either entered in local town competitions or internal matches are played.

In winter, sports offered are hockey, netball, soccer and rugby. All teams play in external competitions. Training takes place after school each week and games are played on Saturday and occasionally Sunday.

Music is another important part of our Co-curricular program at Kinross Wolaroi School. During the school day many students take advantage of the specialised individual tuition available for instruments, singing, speech and drama. The skills students learn in our Music program are then incorporated into our various music ensembles. These groups practise of an afternoon or morning and perform at concerts, eisteddfods and on special occasions throughout the year. Our directors are highly talented and skilled musicians and music continues to be a rewarding experience for our students.

Drama is another aspect of our Co-curricular program. All of our students from Kindergarten to Year 6 are involved in a musical production. Students have the opportunity to dance, sing and act and the productions are highly admired by parents who enjoy seeing their children grow in confidence and skills. Our staff members are also actively involved, whether it is in writing the show, directing or producing. Performance time is one of the highlights of our year.
