Penders Grove Primary School

We warmly welcome you and your family to our school community.

At Pender’s Grove we believe that learning is innate and lifelong. We foster a safe, positive, supportive and equitable learning environment that respects the richness of our diverse community. We work with our students throughout their time at Pender’s to develop their understandings of our school values: Respect, Integrity, Curiosity & Determination.

The school offers a dynamic approach to learning that enables students to participate in and adapt to a rapidly changing world. At Pender’s Grove the teaching and learning caters for students’ individual needs and abilities whilst providing a sound foundation for Secondary School. The school offers a wide range of programs with a clear focus on literacy and numeracy as well as a range of experiences in inquiry learning, the environment and the Arts.

The school goals are:
For all students at Pender’s Grove PS to be literate, numerate and curious.
For all students to be motivated and engaged in their learning.
For all students to feel safe and supported at school and within the learning environment.

Inquiry Learning and investigations are an important aspect of student’s learning at Pender’s Grove and are focused around our four key organizers:
Learning to learn
Learning about ourselves and others
Learning to live in the environment
Learning how things work

At Pender’s Grove we pride ourselves on being a supportive community of learners who work together to deliver the best possible education for the children that attend our school. Please enjoy exploring our website and do not hesitate to contact myself or our school staff with questions or to arrange a visit. We have a tremendous sense of community here at Penders' and we hope that you and your child will love the school as much as we all do.
