Welcome to our school website

Burnside Primary School is unique in what it offers to children, to their growth and to their learning. Our 250 children (from Years 1 to 6 and who are 5 to 11 years old) individually bring a cultural richness with them, from 40 nations. Our school Values celebrate this diversity. We provide an exciting, safe and welcoming environment for all, and our Values of Excellence, Respect, Tolerance, Integrity and Compassion are evident in the ways we work together.

Cultural Week Celebration
Posted: 13th May 2013

During the week starting Monday June 10th  we will be having a special week to learn about and celebrate the many cultures our families at school come from.   This will involve your children sharing with us in their classrooms and with the whole school. We will have a special dress up day, a shared meal, a concert to show your cultures and lots of other activities as well.  We would also like to have some performance groups come to school so if you know of any groups that could do this please contact the school office.
