At BillabongHigh International School (BHIS), learning in the Primary Years is guided by a strong commitment to inquiry, reflection, and global awareness. Our approach is designed to nurture confident learners who are curious, compassionate, and well-prepared to thrive in an ever-changing world.
The Primary Years learning framework encourages students to ask questions, explore ideas deeply, and make meaningful connections across subjects. Through carefully designed learning experiences, students develop not only strong academic foundations but also essential life skills that support personal growth and lifelong learning.
Our Educational Philosophy
BillabongHigh International School shares a common educational philosophy rooted in high-quality, challenging, and learner-centred education. We believe that children learn best when they are actively engaged, supported, and encouraged to think independently.
Our classrooms foster a culture of respect, curiosity, and collaboration, where students are inspired to take ownership of their learning and develop a strong sense of purpose and responsibility.
The Learner Profile at BHIS
At the heart of learning in the Primary Years is our vision of the whole child. We focus on developing well-rounded learners who demonstrate key attributes such as:
Curiosity and critical thinking
Confidence and communication
Empathy and integrity
Balance and self-awareness
These attributes guide teaching and learning across all areas of school life.
Bringing Learning to Life
The learner profile is brought to life through meaningful, age-appropriate experiences—both inside and outside the classroom. Through interactive lessons, group discussions, storytelling sessions, creative activities, assemblies, and reflections, students learn to apply these attributes in real and relevant ways.
In this nurturing and inclusive environment, children grow into caring, balanced, and globally aware individuals, ready to embrace future learning with confidence.
At BHIS, the Primary Years are a foundation for lifelong learning—where curiosity is encouraged, values are nurtured, and every child is empowered to succeed.
