Social Studies

Equipping students with skills is the best way to give them a head-start into the future. The New Zealand Curriculum recognises that all students should have the opportunity to develop essential skills. The great feature of skills is that they are self-perpetuating. Mastery of one skill leads to confidence in another skill and so on.
