Summerdale Primary School has a rich and exciting history. Summerdale has always been committed to providing the best possible teaching and learning programs for our children and has been a leader of schools through providing quality teaching and learning across the full educational spectrum. This is reflected in the many innovative and supportive programs in which our staff and students are involved in.
We have a vision of school improvement and excellence that is built on strong collaboration between teachers. They work closely together each week to promote high quality teaching practice in every classroom. Staff work with collective responsibility for student learning and wellbeing.
Our school is strongly underpinned by the values of Connection, Respect, Responsibility, Courage and Growth. A strong School Wide Positive Behaviour Support approach ensures that we have a respectful, orderly and vibrant learning environment. As our school song suggests; “Summerdale Primary School is a great place to be.”
We offer a wide range of experience for families and children from birth to five years. Refer to the “Launching into Learning” section on this website for a current information.
Students have access to specialist teachers through Music (Grade 1-6), Physical Education (Kinder-Grade 6), Science (Prep-Grade 6) and Library and Wellbeing (Prep). Students in our school have access to a range of Kitchen/Garden opportunities throughout the year. Our school conducts programs for highly-able and gifted students across a wide range of curriculum areas.
Summerdale Primary School has a team of Support Teachers who support students with disabilities and other needs. This team supports students, teachers and families to ensure that their needs are supported with appropriate accommodations.
We are very fortunate to have a wonderful and supportive community. Volunteers play an important role in our school every day and throughout the year. We greatly value all the wonderful ways that our parents and community members support us and our students.
