Wandina Primary School - an Independent Public School

It was wonderful to see some Year 5 students in the office today with independent writing from their Knowledge unit about the First Fleet and the impact on the Aboriginal Culture.

This year, our Year 3-6 students have been engaging with knowledge rich, literature based core units, where high quality children’s literature is at the heart of learning.
Through meaningful texts, students develop strong reading and writing skills while exploring history, science, geography, cultures and important life concepts.

By learning in this way, students;
✨ Build rich vocabulary and background knowledge.
✨ Strengthen reading comprehension.
✨ Develop critical thinking and communication skills.
✨ Make meaningful connections across the curriculum.
✨ Foster a genuine love of reading and learning.

Knowledge is one of the greatest predictors of reading success. The more our students know about the world, the more they understand what they read and the more confident and capable they become as learners.

At Wandina Primary School, we are committed to providing every child with a high quality, education that empowers them to thrive, both in the classroom and beyond.

💙🩵 Every school day counts! 🩵💙

It has been wonderful to see our attendance rates continuing to improve across the school. Regular attendance is one of the most important factors in supporting student learning, achievement and wellbeing.

At each assembly, we celebrate our ‘Top Attenders’ class!

Thank you to our families for your ongoing support in ensuring students arrive at school every day, ready to learn and succeed.

Every day matters and every lesson counts. 💙🩵

A major component of our communication strategy at Wandina Primary School is the Seesaw App. Did you know Seesaw plays an important role in engaging your child in their learning. Through Seesaw you can keep up to date with ‘what’ your child is learning at school and more importantly how they are progressing! We would love to see parents interacting with this platform! Like, comment and let your child know you are proud of their achievements each and every day. 💙🩵 Here’s what you can expect to see from Seesaw.
