Learning at Alexandra Hills State School: Guided by the Australian Curriculum
At Alexandra Hills State School, everything we do is grounded in the Australian Curriculum. It sets out the essential knowledge, skills, and capabilities young Australians need as they move through school — and helps lay the foundations for a lifetime of learning, growth, and active citizenship.
The curriculum provides a clear, national standard for what students should know and be able to do, ensuring that every child, no matter where they live, receives a high-quality education. At Alexandra Hills State School, we bring this curriculum to life in a way that is engaging, challenging, and meaningful for our students.
The Australian Curriculum, developed by the Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA), is built through a careful and collaborative process. It draws on the best expertise from teachers, academics, parents, businesses, and community groups from all over the country. This ensures that what we teach at Alexandra Hills State School stays relevant, rigorous, and responsive to the world our students are growing up in.
By aligning our teaching with the Australian Curriculum, we empower our students to become confident, curious, and capable learners — ready to thrive in their next steps at school, in the community, and beyond.
