Vision

Is seeing beyond the immediacy of the day.

It is understanding the temper of the times,

The outlines of the future, and

How to move from one to the other.William Van Dusan Wishard

We are at a turning point in history, and so we are in education, and in our planning and intended

outcomes for the next five years in Curriculum Services.

21st century learners require 21st century schools

THIS IS CURRICULUM SERVICESEvery so often an opportunity presents itself, that

tempts us to explore new professional learning, in the company of peers, in such an integrated, intentional and innovative fashion, and

It takes us beyond what we know and places us within a larger body of knowledge,

And within this body of knowledge releases our sense of responsibility and creativity to produce a collaborative synergy that directly supports schools in creating the learning environments necessary for student achievement.
