About Us
Welcome to Newbery Park Primary School
Thank you for visiting our website and exploring Newbery Park Primary School. On behalf of our staff, I extend a warm welcome to you and your family.
Located in Millicent, Newbery Park Primary School is dedicated to achieving strong educational outcomes in a safe and nurturing environment. Under the motto “Striving for Excellence,” we cultivate a dynamic environment where children can learn and thrive as individuals.
Our school celebrates the diversity of the Millicent community, embracing students from various socio-economic and cultural backgrounds. We provide a safe, structured learning environment where high expectations are shared among staff, students, and parents.
A standout feature of our school is our commitment to smaller than average class sizes. This allows our dedicated staff to offer personalised attention to each student, creating a supportive learning environment where every child can flourish.
In addition to the core subjects of the Australian Curriculum, Newbery Park is renowned in the region for our Specialist Programs, including Creative Arts and Eco-Learning. These programs enrich our curriculum and actively involve students with the wider community and local ecological sites around Millicent.
At Newbery Park, we take a holistic approach to education, emphasising compassion, kindness, and bravery. We prioritise student wellbeing and aim to foster resilience and creativity in each student.
Our school community thrives on amazing parental support and a strong sense of community spirit. Parents play a crucial role in our school’s success, actively participating in activities, events, and supporting their children’s learning journey.
We uphold a Positive Behaviour Learning (PBL) approach to behaviour management, promoting a positive school culture through evidence-based strategies. Restorative practices are integral to our approach, reinforcing our commitment to nurturing respectful and responsible behaviour.
If you would like to learn more about our school or arrange a tour, please do not hesitate to contact us. I would be delighted to meet with you personally and discuss the exceptional opportunities that Newbery Park Primary School offers for your child.
