Hua Mao Multicultural Education Academy
Primary School
At present we use the Victorian (Australian) curriculum and are working towards the International Baccalaureate Organisation's programme. The promotion of both Western and Asian cultures and ways of life forms an integral part of school studies. The language of instruction is English with daily classes in Mandarin Chinese.
The primary school has seven key learning areas:
- English
- Mathematics
- Human Society and Its Environments
- Science and Technology
- Health and Physical Education
- Creative and Practical Arts
- Chinese Language and Culture
ESL (English as a Second Language) support is given to children.
Assessment
Assessment focuses on students' progress, emphasizing their achievements relating to the prescribed subject objectives. The school issues a written report twice a year and when a child returns to their home country.
