Welcome to Pembroke Primary School
Welcome to Pembroke Primary School, a vibrant, caring and inclusive community where every student is known, valued and supported to learn, grow and succeed. It is a privilege to lead such a warm and welcoming school.
Our dedicated teachers and support staff provide high-quality, evidence-based teaching that responds to the individual strengths and needs of our students. We place a strong emphasis on developing solid foundations in English and Mathematics, complemented by specialist programs in The Arts, Auslan, Physical Education and STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics).
Our school values of Responsibility, Respect and Trustworthiness guide everything we do. Through our School-wide Positive Behaviour Support (SWPBS) framework, we explicitly teach positive behaviours and create a safe, respectful and supportive environment where students can learn, grow and thrive.
Students are also encouraged to explore their interests and contribute to school life through leadership opportunities, lunchtime clubs, sport, camps, gardening, whole-school productions and other co-curricular activities.
We warmly invite prospective families to visit Pembroke Primary School. To arrange a school tour, please contact our office on (03) 9725 6689.
