Welcome to The Pines Primary School
The Pines Schools
operate as a cooperative campus: CPC - Year 7 and an R - 7
'New
Arrivals' program. A community child care centre shares our site.
Our values
are belonging, respect and fun. We have a diverse and
rich cultural student population.
The Pines is an accredited
International Baccalaureate Middle Years Program school.
It is an
innovative site and has a focus on developing healthy lifestyles and
increased
physical activity for all students.
Literacy, numeracy and information and communication technology are embedded
in
the curriculum along with wellbeing, the arts and 'Be Active' programs. Intervention programs for students at risk are also an integral part of the
school. We have a dedicated literacy time each day in early and primary year
classes and operate annual programs
such as 'Grandparents and Special Visitors'
Day'.
The school also celebrates many culturally significant events relative to
our community.
We have a strong commitment to the development of a socially-just
learning environment, where members of the community engage in making decisions,
accessing information and developing relationships.
