West Leeming Primary School is situated 12 minutes south of the Perth CBD, in the suburb of Leeming within the City of Melville.
The school buildings are modern, cluster designs. The junior block has the administration offices, library resource centre, pre-primary and junior classrooms all under the main roof. The middle and senior blocks are separate buildings connected by walkways. The LOTE room is housed in the middle block. Recently, the Early Childhood and Science/Music blocks were added. All classrooms and work areas are air-conditioned.
Other features include: an oval, adventure playgrounds, amphitheatre, enclosed undercover assembly/lunch area, basketball and netball courts, a canteen and floodlit tennis courts.
The school opened in 1986 with an enrolment of approximately 150 pupils and grew to 618. There are currently 15 classes, 2 pre-primary classes and 3 kindergarten classes. There are 47 staff (including non-teaching staff).
The staff of this school have a professional commitment to engaging all students with a stimulating learning program that builds upon existing skills and knowledge and motivates students to pursue goals and achieve their potential. We want students to value education and develop a commitment to lifelong learning.
While there is a specific focus on developing students’ abilities in the critically important domains of literacy and numeracy, our aim is to provide an education that develops the whole child. This means ensuring we develop and nurture the academic, social and emotional needs of each child.
We aim to produce students with not only academic talent, but also with awareness of the wider world and a social conscience. West Leeming Primary School has long been recognised as a school that pursues for our students, the development of an environmentally responsible ethic which is appropriate in an increasingly fragile world. The school’s sustainability program focuses on reducing, reusing and recycling.
West Leeming Primary School works in a highly effective partnership with our P&C Association and School Council. We work diligently to ensure a strong sense of community and with the support and assistance of the P & C and School Council we enjoy a high level of community involvement and engagement.
