I am very proud to introduce you to Pacific Pines Primary School. Our school has established itself as a school of
excellence in academic, sporting and cultural pursuits. We are very proud of the school's standing in its community, and often celebrate our many successes. I feel very privileged to be Principal of our school.
Our experienced and committed staff provide quality teaching and engaging learning that aligns to children's interests and developmental needs as they progress through each year level. We have high expectations of all students and we work hard to support every one of them to achieve their best. Pacific Pines Primary School also embraces the diversity that exists within our school community. Children enrolled in the school have the opportunity to make friends with children from across the globe.
Our aim is to help provide a seamless education from Preparatory to Year 12, working with the high school initiating a curriculum embedded in the excellent teaching of the Key Learning Areas underpinned by the Australian Curriculum. We believe that every student is capable of learning and it is important that they readily experience success. We ensure that students with particular gifts, talents, interests and needs are supported through our curriculum and extra-curricular programs.
Our school infrastructure features state of the art learning areas and through the use of technology, we are equipping our students with the skills and abilities to be active and informed citizens of the 21st century.
As parents and carers, you play a major role in your child's educational development. Your positive attitude towards education, the teacher and school in general, will assist in your child's enthusiasm for learning. Trusting and positive working relationships between the child, teacher and parents and carers are vital at Pacific Pines Primary School as this leads to greater success for our students. Class celebrations of learning each term bring
our community into the school to celebrate our student's achievements. Celebration assemblies in the last week of each term bring our community into the school to celebrate our students' achievements.
Building a culture of high expectations is also very important to us. We support children to develop positive classroom and playground behaviours. Our behaviour standards are very high and I am constantly impressed by our children following our expectations of I am a Learner, I am Safe, I am Responsible and I am Respectful.
Students, parents and carers and staff find that Pacific Pines Primary School has a very positive school climate where community and parental involvement is a key feature. Our P&C Association provide a great support to our school as well as opportunities for parents and carers to contribute and to get to know each other. Our children, parents, carers and staff take pride in being part of our community and I invite new families to come and find out more about our excellent school.
At Pacific Pines Primary School, we aim to be 'Achieving Excellence Together' through our values of; Enhancing wellbeing, Fostering collaboration, Maintaining high expectations, Respecting diversity and Valuing community partnerships.
I look forward to meeting you.
