WELCOME TO WESTERWAY PRIMARY SCHOOL

Westerway Primary School enjoys a beautiful rural setting opposite the Tyenna
River near Mt Field National Park in the Derwent Valley, Tasmania. Westerway
Primary School has proudly been a WildSC’OOL since March 2016 and we enjoy a
productive partnership with the Tasmanian Parks and Wildlife Service through
this initiative, in particular with Mt Field National Park.

At Westerway Primary School we cater for all children from birth to Grade 6 and
provide a challenging, fun and vibrant teaching and learning program for
students within a caring and supportive environment. We offer a full curriculum,
including specialist sessions in PE, Music and Art. We have a kitchen garden
where students learn to grow crops and maintain the garden. Students also
benefit when they enjoy the delicious vegetables at the whole school end of year
Christmas lunch. We also offer P-6 vertical inquiry groupings where children can
work in cross ages teams in an area of their choice: garden design thinking;
food, cooking inquiry; entrepreneurship; promoting health & wellbeing.

Children thrive when there is open communication between parents and teachers
and at Westerway Primary we foster active partnerships between the school, home
and wider community to ensure that the very best possible learning opportunities
are provided for each child. We welcome family and community members into the
school to contribute and share their ideas, knowledge and skills in order to
enrich learning. I encourage you to join our school association to take an
active role in school decision making as well as participate in fund raising
events.

All students are supported to attain their best performance levels with their
learning, social skills, attitude, school spirit, decision making and
leadership. Individual learning plans, small group and 1:1 support are provided
as needed to ensure optimum progress. Our areas for focus on whole school
improvement in 2023 are in the areas of writing and inquiry. Our values are
Aspiration, Growth, Courage and Respect. We explicitly teach these values to
children and frequently point out positive behaviours that embody them. We
encourage families to draw attention to positive behaviours at home that
exemplify these values.

I strongly encourage all parents and students to meet with teachers and me as
appropriate to discuss concerns, ideas, queries and feedback in order to ensure
all individuals feel included, valued and supported and to continually build a
strong and progressive school together.

As Principal, I hope you and your family experience a happy and productive
relationship with our school and that your children experience academic, social
and creative success as part of belonging to our school community.
