About Us

Principal’s Welcome

These values underpin all that we do and promote a culture of learning and living together. Through these values we pride ourselves on our family approach to education and welcome and encourage the involvement of parents in the education of their child. Through the International Baccalaureate, Primary Years Program all children are offered an extensive curriculum program at Kingston Heath Primary School and are encouraged to make the most of all opportunities provided within and beyond the classroom.

The school community at Kingston Heath Primary enjoy spacious and varied facilities and grounds that are well resourced for learning, creativity, sport and play. We are excited to be in the final planning stages of a $5.99 million building program which will commence in 2023 and on completion provide the innovative teaching and learning spaces for our students.

Kingston Heath Primary School benefits from a very strong sense of community where new families are warmly welcomed and quickly become part of the Kingston Heath family. A range of offerings are available for parents to engage with the school and their child’s learning and development.

You will find more information about our school throughout our website.  If you would like more detail about enrolments you are welcome to contact our School Office on 9584 5805.

We look forward to welcoming you to Kingston Heath Primary School.

Buildings and Grounds

The school buildings are set on five acres of spacious grounds that includes junior playground equipment, senior playing equipment, a soccer oval, football oval, cricket pitch, netball and basketball courts, sandpits, an amphitheatre, grassed playing areas as well as quiet seating areas and shaded areas. The grounds cater for all recreational pursuits; quiet play and active play. We are one of the most fortunate schools in having such spacious playing areas.
