In keeping with the re-generation of Dandenong as a thriving multi-cultural hub, the actual buildings of Dandenong North Primary School have undergone a transformation to bring the facilities into the 21st Century. Superb, recent learning spaces, including a state of the art gymnasium, provide our students with a learning environment which is welcoming and purposeful. Our wonderful and vibrant students come from a wide diversity of cultural backgrounds and provide a model for the adult Australian society of how diversity can deliver a fantastic team and family approach to learning. We expect that all students should be able to achieve National and State benchmark standards in literacy and numeracy. We direct enormous resources to make sure that our students will perform at expected levels. We are most fortunate to have a team of highly skilled, capable and experiencedteachers and support staff working together as a committed team to ensure every child can achieve to as high a level as possible. We are also in a position to provide intervention programs for any student who may need additional support in the key areas of reading and mathematics as well as providing mathematics enrichment classes for those students requiring extension tasks. We are proud to be able to provide outstanding specialist programs for many students who enrol in an Australian school for the first time after arriving in Australia from overseas.



We are highly skilled at providing smooth transitional pathways into the Victorian Curriculum for all of our students. We operate an innovative two-week Reception Program for newly arrived students and an outstanding, three-tiered English as an Additional Language program (EAL). As a school withover 800 students we are provided with the resources that allow us to offer an ideal mix of specialist programs that include: Physical Education, Art, Library and Information Communication Technology. Our school encourages and provides pathways to excellence in artistic and sporting fields because we believe that our students should have a love and understanding of the Arts as well as being fit, skilled and healthy in body, mind and soul. We know that fit and healthy children learn faster than those who are not, so we make sure that our physical education program delivers levels of fitness and preparedness that are well above average Our school prides itself on the successful development of a family feeling and atmosphere among the students and staff. We believe that when studentsfeel happy and relaxed, as they do at ¿home¿, they will be able to make the most of every available learning opportunity. We strive to give students and their families a strong sense of belonging to a very large family All of our staff believe in the school philosophy of ¿treating children as if they were our own¿, and a tour through the school is all it takes to experience the feeling of a positive and supportive atmosphere.
