TESTIMONIALS

"Bairnsdale West Primary School gives you amazing opportunities and makes you feel welcome. The Extension programs are great and they let you do what you really love. The camps are superior and they help prepare you for the future. When I was in Prep I made friends on the first day and I still have them in Grade 6."

"Bairnsdale West Primary School is an excellent school because there are awesome opportunities. These include school camps, extension programs, and the chance to be involved in the leadership group and to become a house captain. Bairnsdale West Primary School has also allowed me the opportunity to apply for an Indigenous Scholarship to Geelong Grammar Secondary College to support my sporting and academic abilities."

"I believe Bairnsdale West Primary School is a magnificent school because the teachers give you support and care about what you're doing. It gives opportunities such as leadership, drama/dance and extension programs. When I came to West I was very shy, but after the support of teachers and friends I am now more confident."

"Our daughter has thrived at Bairnsdale West. She really enjoys participating in the academic and Performing Arts extension programs. She has particularly benefitted from the instrumental music program in conjunction with the Secondary College. We appreciate West's flexible approach to meet our child's social and academic needs."

Jeff Crotty -School Councillor

"Both our daughters attend Bairnsdale West Primary School. The facilities are excellent; the extension programs in Music, Sport and the Arts encourage our daughters to reach into new fields of learning. The academic results at "West" are the best in East Gippsland. Take the challenge for an individual school tour and see that at "West" the needs of your child are put first."

"My daughter, Crystal aged 7 loves her maths sessions especially learning the times tables and doing time-lines". 

 Sharon Williams - School Councillor

"I attended Bairnsdale West Primary School as a student and I am now currently working at Bairnsdale West during my gap year as a Teacher Aide.  What I like most about West is the feeling of belonging that both teachers and students provide, despite the many cultural backgrounds and situations that children have been brought up in.  West caters for students of all different academic levels and individual differences, making the school a caring and welcoming environment.  I think this is what makes Bairnsdale West stand out above many other Primary Schools."
