Nhill Lutheran School
EARLY LEARNING
We believe transition is important and our weekly playgroup, Get ’Em Going, caters for and provides growth and development via a Perceptual Motor Program, Music, Art and Language.
SCIENCE
When you step into our Science room, you enter a diverse and engaging environment. It encourages students to investigate and problem solve in a hands-on environment. Students have access to a range of animal species which they feed and care for on a daily basis.
GARDEN/COOKING
Grow, Harvest, Prepare, Share. These are the underlying principles of the Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden program. In weekly cooking classes that students are educated and encouraged to taste and learn about delicious food in order to form positive food habits for life.
COMMUNITY
We recognise the mutual benefit that is developed through interaction between the school and the wider community. Our students are involved in community service and are provided with opportunities to develop their personal growth.
MINI FARM
We believe in fostering creativity and exposing students to the local agricultural environment. Students develop responsibility through regular feeding and nurture animals as they grow.
CHRISTIAN STUDIES
Integral to Lutheran Schools are the opportunities for students to learn, develop and grow in appreciation of Jesus. Christian Studies is complemented by weekly Chapels and daily devotions where students learn about God’s message and belong to a caring community.
TECHNOLOGY
Students use a wide variety of e-learning tools including one-to-one ipads, Beebots, Probots, touch screen computers and have Technology lessons to develop these skills. Our 5/6 class uses Chromebooks to enhance learning opportunities.
CO-CURRICULAR
Where do we begin? At Nhill Lutheran School, we believe in optimising student learning by exposing them in both local and outer communities. We provide camps for years 3-6, sleepovers, many excursions including the Wimmera Field Days, visiting performances, swimming program and more, to enhance the learning program.
