Welcome to Somerville Rise Primary School!

Somerville Rise Primary School consists of high performing, collaborative teams of teachers whose focus is the learning success of every child. The individual learning needs and abilities of all students are met through the delivery of a high quality, differentiated curriculum. This results in the provision of timely enrichment and intervention ensuring a high expectation of success for all of our students.

Our Setting the Climate program, which is delivered at the beginning of each year, ensures that the climate of the school is calm and supportive. Using the research and evidence from the Berry Street Education Model, we create a learning environment that fosters student wellbeing and develops student voice, strengthening your child’s social competencies and engagement in learning.

I invite you, as a new parent, to participate in the many and varied activities that operate at our school. Your child will benefit from your interest, become more confident and adopt a desire to succeed when they see you as part of the school team. Our parent support groups work tirelessly to provide resources and assistance. School Council negotiates very successfully with Government bodies to access funding and materials. They also provide the energy to ensure our grounds and buildings are of a high standard. Our Fundraising Team contributes in many ways to enable our children to receive excellent resources.

Parents are vital members of our school community. We recognise that education is a shared responsibility between home and school. Our community encourages you, as a new parent, to become involved 

with your child’s education by participating in decision making through your participation in these teams.

I welcome the opportunity to share our story and facilities via
