The Digital Technologies curriculum at Queen of Peace is embedded in all areas of the school curriculum.
It encompasses the aims and intentions of the Horizons of Hope Framework, the Victorian Digital Technologies Curriculum, and is reflected in the ways information and communication technologies are used in learning and teaching programs. We are committed to providing contemporary learning opportunities to enable all children to be confident and creative designers and problem solvers.At Queen of Peace we strive to move beyond the use of digital technologies as a substitution or modification of traditional teaching methods. We aim to redefine digital technologies and create rich learning opportunities that are applicable for our 21st century world.
