OVERVIEW
Woodridge offers its Pre-primary, Preparatory and College pupils’ access to facilities that are specifically designed to provide a healthy environment, fostering cognitive, emotional and physical development. However, teaching and learning doesn't only happen in the classroom.
Our outdoor facilities are also used to provide the learners with an experiential learning experience, while cross-curricular linking with the great outdoors is practised in a wide variety of learning areas.
Outdoor education and adventure is an important pillar of the educational philosophy of Woodridge, and whenever appropriate, the 365 acre campus is used for practical learning. The extra mural timetable also incorporates the teaching of adventure skills, which are often mentally and physically challenging, allowing pupils to broaden their experience and promote resourcefulness, teamwork, leadership skills and self-reliance.
Without wavering from our vision, mission and core values, we are committed to guiding those placed under our care and to develop them holistically. Although we much prefer to praise and highlight the positives, we remain true to ourselves and uphold firm but loving boundaries, which are essential for children to feel safe and protected.
