Achieving Excellence Together
Albanvale Primary School endeavours to create an innovative and exciting learning environment for its school community. Our school is co-educational and located in Brimbank, approximately 27 kilometres west of the Melbourne CBD. We cater for students from years P-6 and currently have 310 students enrolled.
At Albanvale Primary School we aim to develop our students as lifelong learners. We challenge and empower each student to take risks in their learning and firmly believe that every student can and will learn regardless of their backgrounds. We strive to make a positive difference to the lives of every individual by providing a stimulating and secure learning environment. We share a vision and align our goals to work collaboratively as a professional learning community to make best practice, common practice in all classrooms. This is strongly reflected in our School Strategic Plan focusing on our priority areas, Literacy, Numeracy and Wellbeing. Our teachers are supported to use digital technologies in the classroom which is empowered by every student being provisioned with their own laptop and the opportunity for students in grades 3-6 to bring their device home.
Our school is structured into six Professional Learning Teams (PLTs) including, Prep, Junior, Middle, Senior, Enrichment, and Wellbeing PLTs. Each are focused maximising our impact and improving student outcomes. Classroom programs are supported by Enrichment Programs which included Performing Arts, Physical Education, Languages-Italian, Visual Arts and STEM. Further enrichment programs include Lunchtime clubs, Intensive Swimming Program, Inter School Sports, Sports Awareness and Camp.
At Albanvale Primary School we have a whole school approach to student welfare, and fully implement the SWPBS Framework. We also offer a range of wellbeing programs and access to school employed allied health professionals.
