English / Literacy
The aim of the English K-6 Syllabus is to develop competence in using language and encourage positive attitudes towards learning English.
The syllabus covers three strands - Reading, Writing and Talking and Listening. Library is always a major focus at Dapto Public School in supporting the development of Literacy.
You can best support the school's program by reading to or with your child for a short time each evening and by encouraging your child to choose and read books in their areas of interest. It is a good idea to then discuss the text with them.
The handwriting style used in NSW schools is called Foundation style. In the later years of primary school, children are encouraged to develop their own style of handwriting.
