English

At Riverton Primary, our English curriculum is thoughtfully designed to foster a genuine love for reading, writing, and discussion among our students. With a comprehensive approach, it encompasses the teaching and learning of Language, Literature, and Literacy.

We strive to create a nurturing culture where children take pride in their writing, fostering a sense of accomplishment and ownership over their words. Additionally, our focus on confident speaking and active listening cultivates effective communication skills, while promoting self-assurance and empathy. Furthermore, we prioritise the development of proficient readers and spellers, equipping students with the essential tools to comprehend, analyse, and engage with a wide range of texts.

Through engaging and varied literary works, we aim to ignite the imaginations of our students and cultivate their critical thinking skills. The curriculum encourages students to explore various genres, culturally diverse texts, different text types, and periods of literature to prepare our learners for life as successful citizens.
