About Us
The School's Purpose is to provide a happy, caring, learning environment where children can achieve to their potential.
The School's motto "Together We Learn" reflects the important partnership between students, parents and staff.
At Warragul North Primary School the personal development of children is paramount. Children work within a secure and caring environment to develop attitudes of co-operation, tolerance and responsibility. Courtesy and respect between all members of the school community is expected. These core values create a happy school where students pursue personal excellence in all aspects of the curriculum.
The key learning areas as outlined in the Victorian Curriculum form the basis of the comprehensive curriculum offered to students at Warragul North Primary School. Special emphasis is placed on literacy and numeracy skills, and the development of students as effective communicators.
Our curriculum is enhanced by the many extra curricula activities that children can participate in such as School Production, Chess Club, Choir (Warblers and Choristers) and Tournament of Minds.
The excellent tone within the whole school community is highly valued at Warragul North Primary School. The implementation and consistent adherence to codes of conduct and other student welfare policies will ensure that this situation is maintained. The ‘You Can Do It’ program further compliments student wellbeing. Scheduled processes of review of all policies means that these strategies continue to meet the changing needs and expectation of the community.
The buildings and grounds of Warragul North Primary School have changed significantly over the years and we are very proud of the facilities we offer. Our school boasts a purpose built music room, art room and gymnasium. We have an excellent administration building which encompasses our library, state of the art computer laboratory, office area, sickbay, staffroom, canteen and several meeting rooms. We have three main classroom wings divided into Senior, Junior and Foundation (Prep).
We are very excited about our newest building project which was completed during 2011, our Prep Learning Centre. It is a three million dollar complex made up of six classrooms and various other areas and is the home of our Foundation (Prep) children.
The attractive grounds at Warragul North Primary School are a feature of our school, and are well maintained at all times. The main features of the grounds include an oval, ‘Tiger Turf’ basketball and netball courts, four areas of specialised play equipment, and also areas for passive recreation. The provision of outdoor shelters, extensive tree and shrub planting, combined with artificial lawn areas, paving and seating, have further enhanced the playground environment.
Warragul North Primary School really is a happening place!
