Department of Education Victoria – Wyndham VIC

Established in 2015, Wyndham Vale Primary School is located in the vibrant city of Wyndham, west of Melbourne. Our school community is richly diverse, representing a wide range of socio-economic and cultural backgrounds, with approximately 60 different languages spoken by our students' families. Situated within Melbourne's rapidly growing corridor, our school has experienced significant expansion since its inception, currently enrolling around 1,100 students.

At Wyndham Vale Primary School, we are committed to implementing best practice frameworks that all staff are expected to embrace. These consistent, school-wide approaches promote positive behaviour, high expectations, and foster a respectful, responsible, honest and inclusive learning environment. Together, these strategies aim to support cohesive teaching practices across all classrooms and are central to achieving our vision of Success for All in Learning and Wellbeing.

Our school operates under a sub-school model, divided into three cohorts: Foundation to Year 2, Years 3 to 4, and Years 5 to 6. Each sub-school is led by a dedicated leadership team, including an Assistant Principal and Leading Teachers and Learning Specialists, who provide guidance and support to students, staff, and families to ensure success.

We are proud to have a comprehensive wellbeing team, led by a Wellbeing Assistant Principal. This team includes a Mental Health and Wellbeing Leader (MHWL) and a group of allied health professionals such as psychologists and social workers, all dedicated to supporting through a Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS)



the holistic wellbeing of our school community

All teaching staff actively participate in highly effective Professional Learning Communities (PLCs), collaborating regularly to share best practices, analyse student data, and refine instructional strategies. While students remain in their own classrooms with assigned teachers, staff share collective responsibility for all students across their cohort through their PLC work.

Wyndham Vale Primary School boasts extensive facilities and resources designed to enrich student learning. Our students participate in weekly specialist programs in Physical Education, The Arts, and Languages Other Than English (LOTE), with Auslan as our language offering. ICT is seamlessly integrated across all learning areas, supported by a school-funded technology device program. Our campus features a full-sized oval, large gymnasium, outdoor hard courts, sandpits, extensive play equipment, and a well-resourced library. Additionally, an Out of School Hours Care provider offers before and after school care services every school day.

Wyndham Vale Primary School holds a strong and respected position within the local community.
