Primary Years
Good Shepherd Lutheran College has three Junior Schools, offering the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme. This student-centred approach to education encourages children to take ownership of their learning to increase their confidence and self-motivation, and collaborate with teachers and peers to deepen their understanding.
