Laurimar Primary School is a new primary school built by the Department of Education and Early Childhood (DEECD). Laurimar is situated on 3.4 hectares of land, 30km in Melbourne’s northern residential growth area. The school has been long awaited for Laurimar and the adjoining residential estates.
Construction commenced on the eight million dollar, ‘State of the Art’ educational facility with the Minister of Education, Bronwyn Pike, turning the first sod of soil on the 21st of May, 2008. The first stage of construction is now complete and the final stage is expected to be completed by mid June.
The master planned community, along with the primary school, includes; construction of a town centre, Safeway supermarket, shops, childcare, kindergarten, swimming centre, sports fields and recreation facilities will be opened in the near future. The recent announcement of a $5.5 million childcare / kinder / maternal health facility in close proximity to our P-2 Learning Centre will create an exciting and innovative early childhood education precinct.
The modern facilities represent an exciting opportunity for students and parents, and will establish the school’s culture, values and future direction. The school will be rich in information and communication technology with flexibility to allow access to IT and communications equipment anywhere within the learning spaces.
The educational environment at Laurimar is conducive to the discovery of knowledge and developing a real sense of achievement for all.
This is consistent with our motto:
Learning - Partnership - Success
