Located in the heart of Preston West within the City of Darebin, Newlands Primary School is Australia's only Spanish bilingual government primary school. Through our internationally recognised bilingual program, students learn in both English and Spanish from Foundation to Year 6, developing high levels of language proficiency while strengthening their thinking, problem-solving and intercultural understanding. As an accredited International Spanish Academy, we are proud to provide students with a truly unique educational experience that prepares them for an increasingly connected world. Our school grounds offer a diverse range of learning and play spaces, including extensive playgrounds, outdoor learning areas, sporting facilities, vegetable gardens and flexible classroom environments that support collaboration, creativity and student wellbeing.
