School
At Newtown Primary School, your child is not one of a crowd — they are known. With a current enrolment of 170 students across seven generalist classrooms and an average class size of just 24, our teachers and support staff know every child’s name, their strengths, and exactly what they need to thrive.
In a local landscape of much larger schools, that is not a small thing. It is everything.
Respect for Self. Respect for Others. Respect for Learning. Respect for the Environment.
A message from the Principal
Welcome to Newtown Primary School — where your child’s journey to success begins!
We’re passionate about more than just teaching; we’re dedicated to igniting curiosity, building confidence, and empowering every student to thrive. Whatever path your child chooses in the years ahead, we’re committed to giving them the tools, skills, and belief in themselves to make it happen.
Thank you for considering us as the place where that journey starts.
