From the Temple Mill Primary School
Welcome to Temple Mill, where we work hard to create a nurturing, welcoming, and inclusive atmosphere that encourages kids to reach their full potential.
As a school, we are progressing on a path toward improvement and change.
Although the school still has obstacles to overcome, we have the professionals needed to help it along the way who are committed, professional, and capable.
There are 8 classrooms in the school, from Nursery to Year 6. There are more than 200 students enrolled in Years R through 6, and more than 30 kids use the nursery programme, either full- or part-time.
We think our curriculum is engaging; it is a creative curriculum that links every subject鈥攁side from math鈥攖o a question and an outcome. It is motivated by inquisitive learning and committed to generating a valuable and substantive consequence at the end of each term.
As a result, I intend to continue explaining the school's future direction and the rationale behind the choices we make.
Starting with the fundamentals will help us achieve our goal of having every student and parent proudly utter the name Temple Mill.
You are invited to visit if you would like to learn more about our school.
