Place-Based Learning

Connecting Learning to Land, Culture & Community

At Warranara Primary School, we believe the best learning happens when it is real, local, and connected to place. That’s why we use Place-Based Learning to help students explore the world around them, not just in books.

What is Place-Based Learning?

Place-Based Learning is a teaching approach that uses local places, culture, stories, and environment as the foundation for learning. Students explore:

  • Their own neighbourhoods

  • Natural environments

  • Cultural and community spaces

  • Local histories and knowledge systems

This creates deep learning that feels personal, authentic, and relevant.
