Education WAÂ introduces Mitcham Primary School in Mitcham, for all your education and learning needs.
We have a growing enrolment of around 425 students, with 18 classes from Prep to Grade 6 in 2012. We have a very strong emphasis on a wide variety of excellent specialist and Intervention programs including Visual Arts, Music, Library, Physical Education, Languages Other Than English (Indonesian), Reading Recovery, Literacy Intervention, Maths Intervention and English as a Second Language.
We achieve excellent student results and student achievement is one of two key drivers of the school. All our children are encouraged to do their best and we work to ensure that children fulfil their potential in partnership with parents.
We strongly encourage parental involvement in our school. This can take many forms: classroom helpers, School Council membership, Council sub-committee membership, fundraising, finance, promotion, and library assistance, to name a few. We run training sessions for parents wishing to assist in classrooms.
At Mitcham Primary School, we place a very high value on and appreciate parents’ input and encourage parents to take on the roles noted above. We believe in open communication between parents and teaching staff and we do our best to prepare children for change and to expose them to the challenges of 21st Century living. We are proud of the work that we do and we have a warm, inviting and respectful atmosphere in every classroom.
