WELCOME FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Principal Mr Phil GarnerMr Phil Garner Principal Blackwood Primary School
A very warm welcome to our school. 

Blackwood Primary School is an International Baccalaureate School that has served the Blackwood Community for over 86 years.  We have an established reputation as a welcoming, high achieving and caring school. 

The school is nestled on 5 hectares of beautifully landscaped grounds between the Wittunga Botanical Gardens and Blackwood High School giving the students the opportunity to be involved in nature play and environmental education.

The school is proudly represented by wide range of cultural backgrounds that contribute to the unique character of Blackwood Primary School.  We are highly regarded for our inclusive educational programs and accomplishments in student learning. We offer a comprehensive educational programme delivered by a very dedicated and professional staff whose experience and expertise significantly enhance our school programs. 

We pride ourselves on high standards in education, sporting pursuits and our ability to provide each student with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes required for life-long learning and global citizenship. 

At Blackwood Primary School, we hold a strong belief that education is a partnership between home and school. We value the contributions of our parents and the wider community and encourage their involvement in all aspects of school life. 

We hope your association with our school will be a happy and rewarding one.
