About us

Ormiston State School builds on a proud tradition and ensures a commitment to, and a belief in, each and every student and their learning.

Our school is one of the oldest primary schools in the Redlands, but is very 'futures' oriented. Our highly regarded, dynamic school provides an inspiring, inclusive, stimulating and safe learning environment.

Our school has a warm and welcoming feel and is proud of our strong community culture and sense of belonging.

Our values of Teamwork, Ownership, Participation and Sensitivity are at the foundation of this culture and are the fabric of the philosophy of the school. These values form 'TOPS', which also stands for 'The Ormiston Primary School'.
