In the world of education, you might have heard the saying ‘small schools are great schools’, but what does it really mean?
At Toolangi Primary School, we embody this belief and go beyond.
Parents often wonder if a smaller school can offer the same breadth of opportunities as larger ones. The answer is a resounding yes—and then some. With small class sizes, we focus on personalized learning through Individual Education Programs tailored to each student’s needs.
Within our close-knit community, we offer a diverse curriculum and a wide range of extracurricular activities. Imagine every Monday filled with excitement as the MARC van, a travelling library, arrives. Students explore new books and authors, borrowing stories to ignite their imaginations.
Tuesdays start with our Breakfast Club, where students, parents, siblings, and staff gather for cheese and ham toasties. This leads into Play Group and Story Time, fostering friendships and creativity among younger siblings and parents.
Adding to the Tuesday fun is our Hot Lunch program, where students take turns cooking and serving meals they’ve prepared—a blend of teamwork and culinary skills.
Throughout the week, our students engage in Performing Arts, Physical Education, and Visual Arts. They also enjoy outdoor adventures like camps, skiing, and sports events, building friendships and resilience along the way.
At the core of our curriculum is the Kitchen Garden Program, teaching students about science, nature, and sustainability. Imagine the delight as students make sourdough pizzas using wheat they grew, tomatoes they harvested, and cheese they made themselves—a hands-on lesson in farm-to-table goodness.
Small yet full of opportunities, Toolangi Primary School invites you to see firsthand the experiences we offer. Step into a community where growth, discovery, and success are everyday occurrences.
Come and see how your child can thrive at Toolangi Primary, because small schools make a big difference.
