We provide a highly personalised teaching and learning program in primary school at Lauriston.  

Our teachers take the time to get to know your daughter and design her learning tasks and goals so that her strengths are extended and she is supported where and when she needs it. 

We use a variety of group and individual tasks and teach in different styles to give every student the opportunity to learn in her own way. 

Our teachers view mistakes as opportunities to learn and we encourage all students to develop a mindset which accepts everyone’s ability can improve over time.

We’re asked this question often and it’s something we’re passionate about. 

Research proves that girls thrive in an all-girls environment. They do better academically, socially and emotionally. 
 
At Lauriston, every aspect of teaching and learning is tailored to the needs of girls, developing their confidence and empowering them to pursue any direction their talents lead them. 
 
You can read research and articles about the benefits of an all-girls education for your daughter on the The Girl’s Advantage page on our website.
