Connolly Primary School (5717)



School Overview


As an Independent Public School we have a strong sense of nurturing, inclusiveness and community. We strive to provide our students with a quality educational environment to empower each child to grow academically, socially and emotionally. At Connolly Primary School we place a strong focus on developing and supporting each child to reach their potential.

Catering for students from Kindergarten to Year 6 our students are provided with excellent educational opportunities designed around their individual needs. We offer specialist programs in physical education, science, performing arts (music) and Japanese. Our teaching and support staff are experienced, dedicated and committed to ensuring each child is a successful student. We have high expectations of our students and drive continuous improvement through the adoption of innovative, effective and evidence-based teaching strategies.

Connolly Primary School has an exceptional student services program, incorporating special educational needs and pastoral care. Our school was a teacher development school for Special Educational Needs providing us a network to share and develop our outstanding practices with other schools across Western Australia. We have also been a teacher development school for digital technologies as part of a 2-year innovation and partnership project with the WA Department of Education and the Innovation Unit.

Our school enjoys a strong sense of community, with the 'Connolly Spirit' being supported by parent and community representatives on our school board and P&C Association.
