At Wondai State School we provide (teach, assess and report on) all eight learning areas of the Prep to Year 10 Australian Curriculum. We have many multi-age classes at Wondai and we ensure alignment to year level Curriculum is maintained in our three levels of planning.

We are currently in the familiarisation and planning stages of version 9 of the Australian Curriculum, due to implement in 2025.
