MindPlusThe MindPlus is a programme for gifted 6-13 year olds that provides intellectual, creative, social and emotional learning and support.

Together they engage in differentiated, strength-based learning experiences to further develop their gifts and talents and a greater understanding of themselves.

How are students selected?
The selection process combines information from the student’s school, the parents and from student participation in a selection workshop.
The selection process begins in term three, in order for student workshops, parent and teacher assessments to be completed. Please approach your school in the beginning of term 3 if you're interested.

How much does it cost?
In 2020, families are charged $47 per day for attending MindPlus. This works out at $470 per school term. We offer a siblings discount for families with multiple children in the MindPlus programme and invoices are sent at the beginning of a term. We ask families to commit to the entire year as placements are limited.
