Dandenong West Primary School

About

Dandenong West is a KIDSMATTER School; all our students matter to every staff member. We are focused on, and committed to, supporting all students to reach their full potential, academically, socially and emotionally

Story

At Dandenong West we set high expectations for our students learning and behaviour and our experienced staff develop strong relationships, with all students, so that we achieve this goal. We know that families are the first and foremost educators of their children and we provide a range of opportunities for all members of our community; students, parents, carers and the wider community, to be involved with the school. These include a Playgroup for pre-school children, a Good Morning club for students to come before school to have breakfast and socialise with others and an Active Children Active Families program held after school so that families can participate in a wide range of games and sports. We also encourage our community to be involved in the day to day activities of our school, including supporting students in the classroom, hearing reading, helping on special days, attending excursions and many more.

Educating your child for the 21st Century requries a dedicated team of professionals who have the skills and knowledge to be able to personalise your child’s learning and collaborate together, whilst developing strong relationships. As parents, the school values your support to optimise your child’s learning and development.

Mission

Our Vision is to inspire a Passion for Learning that motivates us to live life with Enthusiasm and a Positive Attitude
