A large 800+ size school, with limited room for growth in size.

Story

On behalf of the staff and school council, I would like to extend a warm welcome to all children and parents who are beginning an association with Glen Waverley Primary School. I am extremely proud and honoured to be this wonderful school’s Principal and cherish the opportunity to assist in the development of our most precious resource – our children. Our school motto is “Learn, Grow, Achieve” which incorporates the key foundation and purpose of our educational philosophy – a variety of innovative programs are implemented in order for our students to:
· Learn - about themselves and the world around them
· Grow - to become effective members of the community now and in the future
· Achieve - personal fulfilment and a love of lifelong learning
We are a medium size school with a current enrolment of approximately 350 students. We are a family orientated school where each child is valued and encouraged to reach their full potential. Just as each child is an individual with their own character and needs, so too their educational growth is unique. The teachers are committed to nurturing and developing the ability of each child through carefully planned and innovative teaching programs.
The School acknowledges the importance of:
· Catering for individual differences in children's ability.
· The role technology plays in the education of children.
· Broad curriculum options and subject specialisation.
· Languages other than English (Chinese Mandarin)
· Innovative and imaginative programmes.
· A caring and disciplined family environment.
All Glen Waverley Primary School staff are enthusiastic highly professional educators and bring a wealth of knowledge and commitment to their crucial task of guiding students towards a fulfilling and productive seven years of primary education. Our high academic achievement is a direct result of the dedicated, professional teachers who constantly provide diverse, rich, engaging and outstanding educational programs within an environment which is caring, friendly, respective and responsive to the needs of our students.
Our students are highly motivated and are also supported by committed parents and families. Parents are encouraged, at all times, to communicate with teachers and the school management on issues that are of interest or concern to them. Together we have built an inviting and secure learning environment for everyone at Glen Waverley Primary School.
Glen Waverley Primary School’s staff, parents and students are committed to ensuring that our students complete their primary school education fully equipped, both academically and socially, for the challenges of their future years of schooling. We have a strong relationship with our local secondary school, Glen Waverley Secondary College where approximately 90% of our graduating Year 6 students choose to transfer to.
Students at Glen Waverley Primary School achieve outstanding results and programs such as Reading Recovery and ESL are available for students achieving below the expected level or for whom English is not their first language. Programs such as Smart 8 and Tribes create a sense of belonging and provide opportunities for students to excel in their specific areas of interest. In addition to this it enables students to make a seamless transition from one year level to another.
Major building works have commenced at Glen Waverley Primary School as part of the Building the Education Revolution stimulus package. Early 2011 we will have a state of the art 21st century learning centre which will contain six classrooms, student bathrooms and additional teaching and learning spaces.
School tours are available every Tuesday and other appointments can be made by contacting the school office on 9802 9938. We have a strong Pre-school to Prep program and welcome parents to come and learn more about our wonderful school.
We would like you to quickly feel a part of our school and I look forward to meeting you personally

Was a student at this amazing school. from 2017-2021 in this school I loved it very much, and it became eloquent this school was very firm on the teaching of friendship and more. Principal, Mr Catalano is a kind, confident caring principal and teachers are amazing. They don't push people in education to much, but actually help them while loving and caring too. Overall, 5 stars! - , 2024. Miss u GWPS!! I would've def stayed in this school if I didn't move!! -anonymousLOCAL GUIDE
Excellent principal and teachers. I used to host extracurricular activities here. Very well behaved kids. I was amazed at the sense of community they've built and how self-aware the kids are taught to be. I once overheard them discussing amongst themselves during lunchtime about self-regulation and controlling their own emotions so as to not adversely affect the learning experience of their peers to one of their younger friends who hadn't quite understood yet.
I am a parent since 2014. I had a very good experience at this school. The principle Mr. Catalano, is the best. You can talk with him directly and he always in helpful hand. Teachers also very kind and helpful. In this world there are different kind of people so as the school teachers. if you couldn't get the help from the teacher, don't hesitate to directly discuss your matters with the principal. School Activities, Education, Extra curricular Activities are always the best. I love this school!!!!!
This school is VERY GOOD! I have many friends like Rosy and Ruhara! They are kind caring and supportive! I definitely recommend coming here!
This School benefits from good Teachers and a Passionate Principle.nInfrastructure is very good and well maintained.nThere are a lot of Events and Activities planned for the children like: Sleepovers, Camps, Fair, Disco, Fathers day, Mothers day, Sports and the list goes on.nAdditional attention is planned for Kids who are struggling to bring them on par with the rest.nOverall a good school for your little one to enjoy, get educated, participate in sports and also learn good behaviour.
