Building the Kingdom
At Guardian Angels, we are very proud to be a part of the Building the Kingdom programme, the aim of which is to embed distinctive Catholic curriculum design for the transformation of society.
Through Building the Kingdom, we explore the big questions of purpose and meaning that arise throughout the Liturgical year, and then create lessons and events which engage students with the skills needed to be agents for a Spirit-fuelled transformation of society.
Children at Guardian Angels are being formed to be the 'leaders of tomorrow' and they will leave here with a greater sense that they can make a difference.
We have worked with Sister Judith Russi SSMN and the Educarem team to consider approaches that will promote critical and higher order thinking skills across the curriculum. We have developed a wide range of creative strategies to develop our children's skills to be advocates for change for those in the greatest need in society.
We work with other schools who are a part of the programme and share our practice at different events, sharing ideas and forming a professional network.
We have completed Level 1 and commence Level 2 in September 2024, which is aimed at developing the gift that each child possesses for the transformation of society.
As part of our ‘Building the Kingdom’ curriculum design, children will have the opportunity to deepen their understanding by asking ‘big questions’.
