ABOUTUS

At Tarwin Lower Primary school, we provide each student with a high quality education. Each child’s social, emotional and behavioural well-being is nurtured to ensure they achieve their full potential. We provide a rich learning environment that caters for various learning styles. We aim to engage learners through real life activities conducted within a stimulating learning space.

We have a dedicated library, art room and music room, which support a wide range of learning experiences across the curriculum. Students have opportunities to develop their creativity, confidence and skills through engaging programs in the arts, music and literacy. Students also participate in Auslan lessons, where they learn to communicate using Australian Sign Language while developing an understanding of inclusion, diversity and respectful communication.

​

Our school vegetable garden and kitchen facility are used to prepare healthy school lunches for students each week. The garden is an important part of our Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden Program, allowing students to be involved in every stage of the process, from planting seeds and caring for the garden, to harvesting fresh produce and preparing meals. Through these hands-on experiences, students develop practical life skills, teamwork, responsibility and an understanding of healthy food choices.

​

The large play area is situated in an attractive setting amongst native and deciduous trees and garden beds, providing students with plenty of space to learn, play and explore. We are committed to maintaining a safe, welcoming and engaging environment where students feel connected to their school and community. Ongoing improvements to our grounds and facilities ensure students have access to quality learning and recreational spaces that support their wellbeing and development
