Stella Maris has been designed around a philosophy of providing an educational environment that prepares students for a world in which work, society, community and personal relationships are of equal importance.
At Stella Maris, we believe in personalising learning for effective learning and teaching in the 21st Century. We believe that personalising learning requires a highly structured and organised framework where the learners can manage self.
Our principles of effective learning and teaching are:
Shared vision between staff, children, parents, community.
Learners are central in setting goals, reflecting, evaluating and self-managing learning.
Learning is lifelong where different learning styles, and unique talents and interests, promote a range of learning pathways.
Learning environments require adaptive and responsive spaces with access to tools and resources.
A community of learning values and promotes connectedness.
Learners utilise ICT as a key enabler .
