Allegra School - STEAM Allegra

STEAM Allegra

At Allegra School Coffs Harbour we understand a little extra support, flexible learning opportunities in small classes and an environment free from prejudice can make a significant impact to a student's confidence, wellbeing and overall school experience.Allegra is a safe learning space for students who find studying and socialising in mainstream schools challenging. We welcome young people struggling with anxiety, depression or trauma, with neurodiversity (on the spectrum) or learning difficulties, who have experienced bullying or who identify as part of the rainbow community.

We believe a small school, makes a big difference. Allegra offers small classes in an adult learning environment. We prioritise personal growth, respectful relationships and instilling a sense of belonging. Allegra offers an inclusive and flexible learning environment tailored to support students in Years 9 & 10. The subjects are the same, it's the delivery that is different. Our goal is to provide young people with the opportunity to realise their potential on both academic and personal levels.

We are not an easy alternative. We are an opportunity to reset, reinvent and refresh your academic and personal goals and provide a support network to assist you working towards those goals. Our students are carefully selected, those willing to commit to bettering themselves while being supportive of others are more likely to be enrolled.While Allegra has a range of support services to assist students with barriers to learning, we do not offer one-on-one behaviour intervention or high levels of behaviour modification.

As an independent school we are a member of the Association of Independent Schools of NSW and our aim is to offer all eligible young people the chance to grow and mature while undertaking their high school education in a safe and supportive environment. At Allegra we seek to include those young people whose lives may be complicated, challenging or require a particular understanding in order to achieve success.

The recent STEAM showcase at Allegra was a resounding success, captivating parents with the incredible work of students from the Year 9 STEM class, Year 10 Maths class, and Year 10 Visual Arts class. The Year 9 STEM class impressed with their projects integrating circuits and paper construction, demonstrating their understanding of challenging situations and risk-taking behaviour in PDHPE. Teachers Sooz (Visual Arts) and Kylie (STEM) were instrumental in guiding these students, who showcased their skills with modelling clay, cutter machines, and various other tools. The Year 10 Maths class showcased their proficiency in scale factors and precise drawings, creating intricate designs that showcased a wide range of skills. Meanwhile, the Year 10 Visual Arts class wowed attendees with their beautiful Chinese lantern-inspired artworks. The event, held in Room 5, was a testament to the dedication and hard work of both students and teachers, particularly Sooz and Kylie, who went above and beyond to ensure the exhibition was a memorable experience for all. The showcase was open during two time slots, from 2-3 pm and 5-6 pm, ensuring that all parents had the opportunity to witness the creativity and innovation of Allegra's students firsthand.
