Gooseberry Hill Primary School
An Independent Public School
We strive for excellence in all we pursue by motivating, challenging, supporting and assisting our children to reach their full potential.
Welcome to Gooseberry Hill Primary School
Gooseberry Hill Primary School is located approximately 20 kilometres from the CBD in a unique bush setting with nearby national parks and local reserves and it is often frequented by a range of bird life and native wildlife. The school was established in 1972 and during this time has created an enviable record of being a nurturing school, committed to excellence and supported by a caring community.
The School became an Independent Public School in 2012 and this has given the school community some measure of autonomy to steer its guided path in the government school system. The School caters for students from Kindergarten to Year 6.
The experienced school staff members have developed a real sense of community and commitment to the school and assist in developing and coordinating programs which assist students to learn.

AROUND THE GROUNDS
We have again created many opportunities to success through excellence and experience across the past two weeks as we seem to be racing toward the end of the year at speed. The Grandparents’ Morning Tea was again a highlight on the school calendar with many grandparents taking up the opportunity to spend time in the classrooms prior to being treated to performances by the Orchestra, Rock Band, Junior and Senior Choirs. I have received many emails from grandparents thanking us for the event, but the thanks must really go to all of the grandparents who take the time to come and see what is happening at our school. It is this extended family that continues to make GHPS special.
CLASSES 2022
I am currently in the process of finalising the staffing for 2022, with many changes as a result of some staff retiring and others taking leave. We are still hopeful that class lists will be made available on the last Friday of this term allowing parents and students time to prepare over the holiday break.
SCHOOL BOARD
Thank you to those that nominated for the vacant position on the School Board. As outlined in the Terms of Reference, we will now proceed to an election for the vacant positions. A separate note with the nominations and voting instructions will be sent out via Connect.
