Springvale Rise Primary School is a dual‑campus government sector school located in the South‑Eastern Victoria Region, approximately twenty‑five (25) kilometres from Melbourne's city centre.
The Heights Campus is positioned in a well‑established residential area and features a brand new Administration Block and Community Hub, two modern open‑plan learning centres, a synthetic basketball court, state‑of‑the‑art playground equipment, large grassed playing fields and a kindergarten (which operates in partnership with the City of Greater Dandenong and BestChance).
