At Winthrop Primary School we live our school motto of learning and growing together. Our whole school pedagogy is built around this motto with a focus on continual growth and improvement in all aspects of our work.
We believe that children learn best when each and every one of them is valued, supported, connected and nurtured to develop a ‘can do’ attitude.
Our school understands and acknowledges that our values of Respect, Responsibility, Care and Achievement underpin
everything we do.
We care about and look after ourselves, other people and our environment.
Care
We show regard for the feelings, wishes and rights of others because everyone has the right to be respected.
Respect
We are accountable and take responsibility for our own actions.
Responsibility
We know success is not always about simply achieving the goal but is also about the important learning you do along the way.
Achievement
Engage With Our School Community
Winthrop Primary School works in partnership with community to support all
students in becoming successful learners, confident and creative individuals and
active and informed citizens.
A warm welcome back to school for the commencement of Term 2.
Many thanks for ensuring our children's readiness for learning, right from day one of term.
As you may be aware, the SSTUWA has proposed a half-day stop work action on the morning of Tuesday 23rd April, 2024. Further information via Connect notification will be forwarded to parents and carers in terms of this matter as soon as it is available.
We welcome all community to join in our Anzac Commemorative Service on Wednesday 24th April, commencing at 9am. Many thanks to those who have forwarded personal histories and family links with Anzac and service in the Australian Defence Forces. These stories will be shared in our community Honour E-Book which will be published following our service. Students are making poppies which will be displayed on the front lawn of the school prior to our service. If you or any family members who wish to attend and require seating or support to access the service, please contact our school office.
The school will be closed on 25th April for ANZAC day and the 26th April for a school development day.
As Winthropians we take responsibility for our actions and acknowledge our mistakes.
The best thing I like about my work are the 'lightbulb' moments when you see on a child's face that they understand something for the first time.
Everyone is kind, generous and friendly. Everyone fits in at Winthrop because you can make friends and be a good friend.
The best thing I like about my work is our connected community, the growth I see in my students and the humour shared working toward our goals.
The best thing I like about my work is seeing my students' 'get it,' whatever their personal 'it' is.
At Winthrop Primary School everyone belongs because we are good at sharing our cultures.
The thing I like best about my work is the opportunity to connect with the whole child to enable a love of learning, life and ongoing growth.
Learn and Grow Together.
