Curl Curl North is a member of the Northern Beaches Learning Alliance (NBLA) formed in 2008. This community of schools comprises local primary schools, together with the five campuses of the Northern Beaches Secondary College.
Central to the NBLA are the project-based learning initiatives undertaken jointly by primary and secondary schools. Students from primary schools and high schools are linked in mentoring partnerships. ‘Project Penguin’, ‘Design, Make, Innovate’ and ‘Science Techno Museum’ involve students in hands-on, problem solving projects.
Through the NBLA, Professional Learning opportunities are made available to teaching staff. On the Term 2 School Development Day a conference is held for over 200 staff of the twelve NBLA primary schools.
