Welcome to City Beach Primary School. It is a privilege and a joy to lead a proud Independent Public School and vibrant learning community. At City Beach Primary School we believe that getting to know your children individually, their uniqueness and you, their families, is as important as knowing the content we teach.
Positive relationships are the key to success at City Beach Primary School. Our students’ success is our success! We provide a wide range of engaging opportunities for students to develop both academically, socially and emotionally. Our safe and inclusive school environment maintains and encourages open lines of communication and positive partnerships with you, the primary educators.
Our people – each of us…are at the heart of our school and everything that we do. We have a strong, enthusiastic and invested school community who eagerly support the work of the school to ensure we are, and continue to be, a school of excellence where children grow to be the best they can be. Our school’s success relies heavily on the help of parents who make up the School Board and our P&C Association. Both groups work tirelessly to support our school and listen to your opinions on how we are going.
At City Beach Primary School, we have a dedicated team of teachers and support staff with a wide range of experience and expertise. The staff work collaboratively as a team in an effort to grow and be the best they can be. We constantly ask ourselves: How are we going; How do we know; Is it good enough; and What can we do about it? Our staff work tirelessly to assist all students to be:
‘Confident, curious and creative learners with healthy hearts and minds, who belong to a culturally responsive and inclusive community where future focussed learning equips us to contribute to a sustainable world.’
The City Beach Primary School learning environment is underpinned by our strong set of values and beliefs. Our motto Achieving Together with Pride and our three core values of Respect, Responsibility and Resilience are integral to all that we do.
Our students’ well-being and educational needs benefit from a dedicated and experienced staff who are supported by an active and equally dedicated school community. The You Can Do It social and emotional learning program supports the social and emotional needs of students while teaching the key strategies that assist in unlocking their treasure chest to success and happiness. The YCDI program is underpinned by the Five Keys to Success: Getting Along; Confidence; Resilience; Persistence; and Organisation; these are promoted throughout the school. Our behaviour expectations Be Safe Be Kind Be Fair also guide our actions and words each day.
