Learning & Teaching at COHR

Our Inquiry Approach

Christ Our Holy Redeemer believes that the best teaching practice is to ‘teach without telling’.  

Our learning and teaching philosophy is based on the Inquiry approach where our students, along with guidance from staff, are encouraged to; think deeply, ask questions, sort information and discover answers on any given topic, and to take action and do something with the new information gathered.

This semester, our whole school Inquiry concept is: RESPONSIBILITY

Along with our core Curriculum Areas of Religious Education, English and Mathematics, each year level’s Inquiry Units will encompass General Capabilities and several discipline-based curriculum areas, focussing more so on the Humanities, for example; History, Geography, Civics & Citizenship, Personal & Social Capability, Intercultural Capability etc.

Here is a snapshot of each level’s Inquiry units for Semester 1 2021:
