Our website is changing ....

Welcome to Poseidon Primary School's new website. At present it is still in its very early developmental stage and as such has only a limited range of information currently available. Over time, more pages will be added to the site which will provide more detail on various aspects of the school, including About Poseidon, For Parents, For Students, For Staff and a Photo Gallery.

The school has recently commenced a process of revitalization with the aim of establishing an agreed set of values, a school vision and for the first time a school wide pedagogy. The combination of these three components will provide the school community with both the direction and structures necessary to provide our students with the knowledge, understanding and skills to be successful in our 21st century society. This process is participative in nature, and I encourage all parents, carers and community members to take advantage of these upcoming opportunities to contribute their ideas and opinions. Our new website will be used to showcase this exciting journey over the coming years.

The school motto - 'Teaching, Learning, Caring' - and the school purpose statement - 'To provide a learning environment that facilitates the academic, social and personal growth of all children in the school' - reflects the holistic view the school community embraces towards education.

All parents interested in enrolling their children are welcome to visit our wonderful school and discuss how we are able to cater to the individaul needs you of your child
