Principal’s Welcome

Unconditional Positive Regard for Everyone

All state schools are great schools and really the only way you can make up your mind is to book a tour and have a look.
You will know whether you like the atmosphere as you walk through.

We are fortunate because we are a well-established school and we have learnt what is important for you and your children.
We live our Values of Respect, Trust, Sense of Humour, and most of all, Learning. When you enrol at our school you will be provided with lots of information around our expectations and what we do. One of the most important documents is our Values booklet because that provides you with the behaviours we expect from our school community, parents, children and staff to show at all times.

We have achieved significant student learning growth outcomes over the last five years. We expect that all children will achieve at least twelve months in their learning every year. Our teachers and support staff work really hard to make sure we maintain the growth in your children’s learning. Our results have reflected this laser like focus on your children’s learning.

Most of all though we want your children to be happy and content with their schooling because they learn so much more effectively when they like coming to school. All children learn differently. Part of the skill of our teachers is to recognise this and to tailor their teaching style to maximise your child’s learning. This is the reason why we spend time with you and your family to find out about your child while you are enrolling. In this way we are well prepared to ensure your child has a great start to their time at Cranbourne West Primary School.
