Sustainable Schools

Eastwood Primary School and Deaf Facility is in Ringwood East in Melbourne.

Eastwood Primary School and Deaf Facility, in partnership with its community, seeks to optimise the potential of each individual and promote a friendly, safe and healthy school environment.  We aim to extend knowledge, challenge thinking, provide choice and ignite passions.  The School has a Facility for Deaf/Hearing Impaired students, which services the surrounding districts. Deaf students are fully integrated with support provided by Teachers of the Deaf.

The school’s motto ‘Enthusiasm Precedes Success’ supports the school community’s value for the many facets of development in the preparation of our children for a full life as tomorrow’s adults.  Our Student Wellbeing focus aims to empower individuals and teams to enable a sense of connectedness, purpose and zest for life.  We seek to help build self-confidence, self-esteem and resilience in order for our students to approach future life experiences, opportunities and challenges with self-assurance and energy.  There is a passionate commitment to all students and their families having a positive sense of belonging.

Eastwood Primary School is committed to becoming a sustainable school for ensuring a better and healthier environment. Our students will undergo programs that will help them to better understand people’s effects on the environment and how we can all play a part in protecting habitats, recycling, conserving energy and managing our resources more efficiently. We will to provide our students with attitudes, habits and knowledge that will encourage sustainable living.
