Learning at St Sebastian's

At St Sebastian's, we inspire students to be curious, confident and capable learners. Through high-quality teaching, meaningful feedback and strong partnerships with families, every child is supported to achieve their personal best and develop a lifelong love of learning 

Learning Outcomes 

Strong learning outcomes are built through high expectations, personalised support and a commitment to student growth. We help students develop the knowledge, skills and confidence they need to thrive at school and beyond.  

Students develop: 

  • Strong literacy and numeracy skills 
  • Critical and creative thinking 
  • Confidence and independence 
  • Communication and collaboration skills 
  • Resilience and a growth mindset 

Developing Active Learners 

Our Active Learner Dispositions provide a shared language for learning across the school. Students are encouraged to challenge themselves, embrace feedback, persist through difficulties and take responsibility for their growth. These habits help build confident, resilient learners who are well prepared for the future.
