NURSERY 1 AND 2 Our Curriculum At the Australian International School Bangkok, we use the Australian Early Years Learning Framework ‘Belonging, Being and Becoming’ as our guiding curriculum document. AISB fosters a safe, nurturing learning environment for children from all backgrounds and abilities. We believe that the early years are a vital period in a child’s learning and development, and provide the foundation for life-long learning. Nursery 1 and 2: About Us LEARNING FOCUS The core focus of the Nursery program is to develop strong, trusting relationships as children transition from home to a structured learning environment. These teacher-child relationships are the foundations for children’s feelings of security, allowing children to explore, meet challenges, persevere and learn. In addition, these relationships allow educators to play a variety of important roles in supporting children’s learning. The best learning outcomes for children occur when there is a balance between child-directed play, guided play and adult-led learning. Children learn so much through play; it allows them to explore, discover, negotiate, take risks, create meaning and solve problems – all the important foundations for developing literacy, numeracy and social skills. Through this play-based learning, our skilled teachers can introduce and reinforce concepts for children to learn in way that engages each child’s interests, and captures their natural sense of inquiry, wonder and discovery. SPECIALIST CLASSES Together with their homeroom program which is guided by the EYLF, specialist classes provide further opportunities to develop the breadth and depth of the children’s skills and understandings. Nursery children attend Library, an Early Years Music Program, Swimming and a Perceptual Motor Program that fosters an integrated approach to fine and gross motor development. COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP The AISB family is a rich and vibrant blend of cultures, backgrounds and experiences, and when your family joins us, we want to get to know you. By building strong, meaningful relationships with all our families, we can individualise experiences to better suit your child’s culture, interests, needs, abilities, disabilities and learning style. Families receive regular communication from the home teacher about their child’s program, progress and learning. Parents are also encouraged to contribute information about what their child is doing and learning outside of school, as this continuity between home and early learning can greatly enhance your child’s learning and development. Families are also encouraged to participate in a wide range of celebratory events throughout the year. Nursery 1 and 2: Activities

KINDERGARTEN Our Curriculum Kindergarten classes cater for children aged 3 to 4 years of age. Kindergarten is the transition year between early education and the primary program. Our Kindergarten program is guided by the Early Years Learning Framework and provides a rich and engaging child-centred environment where children’s learning is embedded in play experiences. Learning activities are planned through inquiry units and a skills-based Pre-Literacy Program for children to build skills, knowledge and understanding in the social, emotional, physical, cognitive, mathematical, language and communication domains. Kindergarten: About Us LEARNING FOCUS In Kindergarten, children continue to build a strong sense of identity and connectedness to their world. There is a focus on wellbeing, linked with resilience, providing children with opportunities to manage change and to respond to challenges in a positive, supportive environment, building their confidence and optimism. Active learning in Kindergarten fosters curiosity, problem-solving, creative thinking and investigation processes. The development of language, literacy and numeracy is essential. Exploring and engaging with literacy through reading, viewing, listening, writing, speaking and creating in personally meaningful ways supports kindergarten children to become effective communicators. Similarly, they begin to appreciate and develop skills in numeracy – the capacity and confidence to use mathematics in everyday situations. SPECIALIST CLASSES Together with their homeroom program specialist classes provide further opportunities to develop the breadth and depth of the students’ skills and understandings in Kindergarten. Kindergarten children continue to engage in Library, Music, Swimming and the Perceptual Motor Program. Thai Language and Culture is introduced by the Specialist Early Years Thai Teacher. COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP Families receive regular communication from the home teacher about their child’s program and progress. You are encouraged to be active partners in your child’s educational journey. Families are encouraged to participate in a wide range of celebratory events. Kindergarten: Activities

AISB SAFE RETURN TO CAMPUS Hybrid Teaching Model Topics Covered: Staggered Return On-Site Classes: Nursery to Year 6 On-Site Secondary Assemblies Staggered Return To start the return to on-site learning we will stagger the start using an “add on” staggered entry. Soi 20 Campus Weds 3/11: Year 1 students will return Thurs 4/11: Nursery, Kindergarten and Foundation students will return Soi 31 Campus Weds 3/11: Year 1 and Year 6 students will return Thurs 4/11: Year 2 and Year 5 students will join our Year 1 and Year 6 students on-site. Fri 5/11: Year 3 and 4 will return (all year levels will be on-site). Secondary school students will not be returning in this coming week, with further announcements to be made once a start date is confirmed. On-Site Classes: Nursery to Year 6 Each Year level (Syndicate) has either 3 or 4 teachers. One (1) teacher will be the Remote Learning Teacher and all other teachers will be the on-site teachers (this will depend on the number of students on-site) The children who return on-site will be divided into classes with the on-site teachers. As class sizes are small we expect to be able to have classes less than 20 on-site. The remote teacher will work with all Remote students for that year level. Students returning on-site will be controlled with at least three (3) day’s notice required if a child is returning. Quarantine Situation: Should a child or group of children be quarantined, they will resume Remote learning with the Remote Teacher for their year level. Should all class members be quarantined, they will resume Remote Learning with their on-site teacher who will switch to Remote teaching. This is most likely for all 3 day quarantines. 14 day quarantines are most likely to affect groups within a class so those quarantined will commence Remote learning with the Remote learning teacher after the initial 3 days. On-Site Secondary Students will be allocated into their Homeroom Bubbles and Curriculum Bubbles to minimise contact with other year groups, and to limit movement within the Secondary School site. Already having small class sizes helps us do this with limited disruption. Years 7 & 8: Students will have a Homeroom base classroom, where the different subject teachers will come to teach their subject. The current Year Group timetables will be followed. Music, ICT, Design & Technology, Art and Design and Physical Education will be the only subjects where students will move from their base room for specialist lessons. Years 9 & 10: Students will have a base room along with a limited range of selected rooms based on mandatory and elective subjects. This will minimise the amount of contact with other students, Year groups and movement within the Secondary school campus. Core subjects will be taught in the Year Group Base room, along with some selected Elective subjects. Elective Specialist subjects such as; Art & Design and Design & Technology will be taught in designated specialist rooms. Lesson times will be staggered and have gaps to allow for room cleaning between groups. Years 11 & 12: Students will be have a base room along with a limited range of selected rooms based on mandatory and elective subjects. This will minimise the amount of contact with other students, Year groups and movement within the Secondary school campus. Core subjects will be taught in Year Group Base rooms, along with some Elective subjects. Elective Specialist subjects such as; Art and Design and Design and Technology will be taught in designated specialist rooms. These will be staggered and have gaps to allow for cleaning between groups. *Physical Education will be conducted outside for all bubbles in designated staggered slots. Secondary Quarantine Situation: Should a student or group of students be quarantined, they will resume Remote learning. Should a teacher be quarantined, then, health permitting, the teacher will provide all lessons via Remote teaching. Classes still on-site will access these lessons on-site but via Remote Learning mode in the classroom designated for that lesson. TAs will be allocated to supervise classes. TAs will be allocated Year levels (based on floors) and remain with these year levels where possible. AISB will revert to Remote Learning should there be a number of cases throughout the Secondary school and/or a number of teachers quarantined so that the on-site program cannot effectively be carried out. Assemblies All assemblies will be online assemblies.
