Our Programs
At Tate Street Primary School, we offer a comprehensive program that caters to the diverse learning styles and needs of our students. Our classes are designed to provide a personalised education that helps each child reach their full potential.
​
Tate St PS has had several schools from around the Barwon area to observe our teachers deliver lessons in Literacy, classroom management strategies, review our Numeracy improvement journey and learn from our Education Support staff.
Literacy
At Tate Street Primary School, we prioritise phonics and phonemic awareness as essential foundations, employing a robust decodable program in the early years. As students’ progress into the senior years, they continue to enhance their reading and writing skills by delving into rich literature exploration.
Numeracy
At Tate Street Primary School, we have a strong focus on Number and Algebra in the early years to firmly establish the foundations of mathematics. As students’ progress in their educational journey, they cultivate proficiency in the four key strands: understanding, fluency, problem-solving, and reasoning. This development occurs through engaging with a variety of open-ended and real-life mathematical challenges.
Camps and Extracurriculum Programs
Our school camps program provides all Year 4, 5 and 6 students with the opportunity to experience overnight camps.
​
We focus on sustainability initiatives, work closely with local secondary schools to assist in transition, and offer both Bike Education and Swimming Programs.
School Sport
In 2023 we had the Senior Girls Soccer Team qualify for the regional finals and several students attend the regional athletics carnival, with Arkadiy Gray going all the way to the State Title for Triple Jump! ·
Mr D led our Grade 3, 4, 5 and 6 students to participate in District Aths, Cross Country, basketball, soccer, netball, and tee ball in 2023.
