Elizabeth Park Schools is a Preschool-Year 6 school set in stunning grounds in the redeveloped suburb of Elizabeth Park. Elizabeth Park Schools offers a range of educational experiences, such as:

  • Stephanie Alexander Kitchen and Garden Program
  • Specialist Science, PE, Technologies (Digital Technologies and Design and Technology) and Visual Art classes
  • Explicit teaching of literacy and numeracy
  • Social and emotional learning, including the Zones of Regulation, character strengths and body awareness
  • Immersive learning experiences, including a range of excursions and incursions

  • Primary Special Options class
  • Differentiated and inclusive teaching practices

We are a multicultural school that offers a range of supports for our community, including bilingual student support officers (BSSOs), English as an Additional Language or Dialect (EALD) intervention and English language classes through our Community Hub. The Community Hub also offers cooking classes and a playgroup. We invite all families with P-6 aged children from the local community to come for a tour of the site.

At Elizabeth Park Schools, we work from the core values of care, respect and responsibility. Students are seen as individuals, and are encouraged to express curiosity, creativity and kindness in everything they do. We aim to build citizens of the future who are resilient, open-minded, knowledgeable and empathetic.

Please contact us if you have any questions or comments. We welcome the opportunity to share more about our programs and plans with you.
