About this program
Brisbane Independent School (BIS) has been nurturing young minds since 1968, with a mission to develop confident, competent, and respectful graduates who continue to foster their innate love of learning. The school operates under a child-centred and holistic approach, supporting students' social, emotional, ethical, physical, and cognitive development in a flexible and supportive environment. BIS values each child's learning journey and provides a safe, inclusive space guided by its core philosophy and values. Classrooms feature multi-age groups—Big Cats (Prep–Year 1), Penguins (Years 2–4), and Dolphins (Years 5–6)—and promote a welcoming, community atmosphere. Each environment is tailored to suit different developmental stages, emphasising relationships, leadership, and individual growth over several years.
