Gifted/Talented & Enrichment

Our Gifted/Talented & Enrichment programmes commence in term 2 each year; they are integral parts of the curriculum offered at Blockhouse Bay Intermediate.

All of our students engage in our ‘core’ curriculum programmes provided in classrooms and Technology/Arts classes. Subsequently, we aim to enable students to pursue their passions or explore new interests through our Gifted/Talented & Enrichment programmes, designed to help all students realize their full potential.

The Enrichment programme takes place in Block 4 daily, on day 4 of our timetable during Terms 2 and 3. Our Gifted/Talented programme runs during Block 4 on the other days of the week. Some programmes last for just one term, allowing students to try more than one programme. The Gifted/Talented programme specifically runs during Block 4 on Tuesdays. Each programme offers unique dynamics and elements, and we believe all children will benefit greatly from the wide variety available.

Students are encouraged to participate in various specialized groups offered at Blockhouse Bay Intermediate, including:

– School Production / Variety Show
– Gifted & Talented Art Programmes
– Glee Choir
– Ukulele Group
– Concert Band / Orchestra

Throughout the year, regular performances such as end-of-term performance evenings, end-of-term Star Awards, school assemblies, as well as events in the community, provide opportunities for students to showcase their efforts and progress.
