Brisbane Boys' College

School in Toowong, QLD

Knowledge-based learning is no longer enough. We teach our boys to question the status quo and solve problems to make the world a better place. Not just when they leave school. Now, at Brisbane Boys' College. We know boys. We know how to harness their energy, curiosity and thirst for competition. We call this: A New School of Thought.

It starts with music every day. As one of only a few schools in Brisbane to offer the Music Every Day program as part of the standard curriculum, BBC's Junior School sees our youngest learners in Prep, Years 1, 2 and 3 partake in music lessons on a daily basis. The program supports literacy and numeracy development through song, syllable work and musical stories integrated into our core curriculum.

Designed to stimulate and challenge inquiring young minds the Junior School program at BBC caters for the unique learning styles of young boys. A combination of creative and structured learning experiences allows each student from Prep to Year 6 to explore their special interests and individual talents whilst acquiring a strong foundation for future learning. Purpose built facilities provide an exceptional learning environment and all boys are extended and supported at each stage of their development to ensure they experience personal success. The flexible and diverse curriculum encourages students to become active learners, complex thinkers and effective communicators.

BBC specifically tailors its program to meet the needs and interests of young men as they progress through their education. Excellence is valued and academically gifted students are challenged. A broad curriculum is offered to cater to the interests of all boys and every student is encouraged to achieve to the best of his ability.
