The Lara Primary School Community values a love of learning, a sense of fun, unique talents and an inquiring mind. Students are challenged to achieve their personal best in a safe and caring learning environment.
Students at Lara Primary School are well catered for by a caring staff with high expectations for student learning. Students are challenged to achieve their personal best in a safe and caring learning environment; as the school strives to achieve three key goals in terms of their strategic direction:
To improve student learning in literacy and numeracy, with particular emphasis on writing and number.
To strengthen student engagement in their schooling, particularly in building independence and empowering students to take added responsibility for their own learning.
To provide students with positive and seamless learning transitions, particularly within the school.
Lara Primary School supports their school vision by a collection of 6 catch cries - difference makes us unique, strive for personal best, be a problem solver, care for ourselves, others and our environment, wonder and discover, and think safety. These catch cries were developed with extensive school consultation, and are clearly displayed throughout the school.
