Gifted Education
In every class at Sunnybank Hills State School there are gifted and high potential students. Students can be gifted and/or have potential in a range of areas including academic, arts and sports.
In the academic areas class teachers make adjustments to the curriculum in order to challenge and engage students. If students are showing exceptional academic achievement the school, in conjunction with parents can engage processes that explore a range of creative options to best meet the individual needs of the child.
The school offers extra curricular activities including chess, robotics, Lexile Reading Challenge, and competitions (Writing Poetry, and University NSW), that all provide students with a breadth of intellectually challenging activities.
