Integrated Curriculum

It is now recognised that schooling should support the development of skills in cross disciplinary, critical and creative thinking, problem solving and digital technologies, which are essential in all 21st century occupations. These objectives lie at the core of the national science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) school education strategy to lift student engagement and attainment in STEM and improve student outcomes.  At St. Ambrose Parish School we have added arts and call our work in these areas STEAM.

Our students have displayed a keen interest and high level of engagement in our STEAM work and they are actively involved in the problem solving and learning process as well as in setting goals for their learning and mapping their path of research. The skills they practice through STEAM projects support them to develop a growth and learning mindset as well as capabilities that support lifelong learning. It is always wonderful to watch children discover new potential within themselves when engaged in Integrated Curriculum activities.
