Port Wakefield Primary School seeks to ensure all students receive a high quality education and promotes a learning/working environment, which supports, develops and acknowledges high standards of individual performance. We also aim to ensure the economic and
social backgrounds of students
are considered, as they are encouraged to accept responsibility and to develop through programs. Further, we actively encourage community interest in the school and its participation. Our focus is on improving literacy and numeracy outcomes for all students, as such we participate in Accelerated Reader,

  • Star Reader and Mathletics programs. Site Learning Plan Priorities include Literacy / Reading, Numeracy and Future Citizens, and healthy lifestyles are emphasised. The school is developing a strong information technology focus within curriculum areas.  We have an established Information and Communication Technology (ICT) room with computers, multimedia projector, digital cameras and printers.

  • Years 3-7 use laptop computers with wireless access points throughout the school.

  • Our school is part the ICAN Youth Development program with a variety of areas which students are involved in such as Aqua and Gardening.  We also run the Community Mentoring program where community members mentor  students from Years 5-7.

  • As of 2012 our school now uses the Restorative Practices system to help students to take ownership and work with others collaboratively in the class setting.
