- Grasmere Primary School is a rural school located in south-west Victoria, Australia, and
is 14 km from
the major town of Warrnambool.
Most of the children travel to and from school
by bus with the remainder travelling by car.
- The school provides a focal point for the community.
Maintenance of a watering
system for the oval provides for a Fire Refuge Assembly point for the Grasmere
District.
The school is adjacent to the Grassmere Community Hall and tennis
courts and access to these community facilities establishes links with the
wider community. The Grasmere hall is used for concerts, visiting Arts shows and indoor
wet weather physical education.

court, constructed play equipment areas, fitness track and native garden areas
for recreation.

eight curriculum areas with resources regularly updated. There are many
enrichment and support programs to help develop the major key learning areas.
These include instrumental music, a camp
program at all grade levels, a variety of sports programs and visiting Science
and Arts Programs.
- Our Charter priority is Numeracy. We aim to develop and
implement teaching and learning strategies in the classroom to more effectively
cater for the range of individual needs.

curriculum areas and the general physical environments.
The School Council and
Junior School Council (JSC was formed in 1997) are very proud of the school.
