The Thomas Aquinas Scholars Program supports and challenges gifted and high-potential students, providing opportunities, resources and guidance to help them excel. Inspired by the greatest Dominican scholar, St Thomas Aquinas, the program fosters academic achievement, creative thinking and personal growth in an inclusive and supportive setting.
The diverse nature of giftedness shapes the identification of high potential at Santa Sabina as a multi-faceted and ongoing process, employing multiple criteria to ensure gifts across many domains are recognised. We enrich students’ minds through innovative ideas and through critical thinking and reasoning. Giftedness encompasses creativity and can be seen on the stage, on the sporting fields, perceived through artistic expression, seen in expert experimental design and heard through musical performances and composition.
In this video, the students explain how the program works.
