The staff at Newhaven Primary School are caring and dedicated educators who work together as a team to support every student at Newhaven Primary School. Teachers have high expectations for each child to reach their full potential emotionally, socially, and academically.
Specialist subjects include Science, PE, Music, and Japanese for every student, every week. We also run an Artist in Residence Program each year for students to experience other cultures, creative music through dance and song. Each classroom is well equipped with the latest technology as well as iPads and touchscreen laptops.
All students participate in our Twilight Athletics meet where parents bring a picnic to school and watch students from prep to six participate in track and field events. We also run Family Science nights and a highlight each year is our Book Week dress up parade.
