Our Community
Whorouly Primary School places great emphasis and value on being a community school with parents, students, teachers, community members and groups working together to provide a quality education.
Our family nights each term highlight the SAKG, STEAM and our Specialist Programs of Art, Italian, Music and Science and we share our love of literature with a Library After Dark family night.
We collaborate with Whorouly Preschool to provide valuable transition opportunities for local children. Most of our Foundation enrolments have attended our local preschool.
