Welcome to Aranda Primary School, where our mission is to provide every student with a wide variety of engaging learning experiences. We aim to spark curiosity and motivation in every child, ensuring they feel inspired and challenged during their time with us.
Our current school improvement priority is to enhance the outcomes for students in Social and Emotional Wellbeing (SEL). We recognize that strong social and emotional skills are fundamental to student success, both academically and personally. To support this, we are embedding a restorative culture and adopting a whole-community approach to SEL, helping students build resilience, empathy, and self-awareness.
The wellbeing and safety of our students are of the utmost importance to our staff and the wider Aranda community. We are dedicated to creating an environment where students feel safe, supported, and empowered to be their authentic selves. Our students are encouraged to care for others, embrace differences, and strive for personal excellence. Good manners, resilience, and compassion are core aspects of our graduate profile.
Our teaching team is an outstanding group of professionals committed to evidence-based practices. They focus on the individual needs of each student and measure progress regularly to ensure growth. Through classroom observations, sharing best practices, and ongoing professional development, our teachers continuously enhance their skills to deliver high-quality learning experiences. We firmly believe that great teachers, supported by positive and engaged parents, bring out the best in children.
I am proud to be part of this exceptional team and to share with you the dynamic educational programs and activities at Aranda Primary.
Warm regards,
Scott Pearce
Principal
