School Overview
|
Our school community embraces our motto, 'Learning Together' by developing independent learners with the skills and knowledge to become productive, happy and fulfilled members of an ever changing world.
We are committed to developing each child's potential academically, socially, emotionally and physically. Our school community is united in teaching the values that enable our students to lead in the development of a harmonious and inclusive, multicultural society.
Up to 75% of our students have a language other than English as their first language with over 28 different first languages identified. Besides English, the major languages spoken are Arabic, Vietnamese and Macedonian.
We celebrate and embrace this cultural diversity every day and through major events such as Harmony Day and NAIDOC Week. Our motto, 'Learning Together' captures the community focus of our school. We are committed to building strong and positive partnerships with parents and the local community.
A strong focus is placed on academic achievement with priorities in literacy and numeracy. 'English as an additional language or dialect' students are a major consideration in all of our programs. Specialist teachers in literacy and numeracy support teaching programs and individual planning is integral to the success of students at risk. Additional programs, including 'Breakfast Club' and 'After School Sports' are offered.
We have a range of specialist programs in the areas of The Arts, Physical Education and Languages (Italian). Our students also have the opportunity to take part in other school activities including Chess Club, Glee Club, Garden Club, Robogals and STEMgeneers Club (STEM - Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths).
Boyare is a 'Six Kinds of Best School' and places emphasis on social learning and values education. Our Learning Support Coordinator, Aboriginal and Islander Education Officer, School Chaplain and School Psychologist, along with members of the leadership team, are important contributors to our strong Student Services Team.
We have strong links with our parent community, with a proactive Parents and Friends Association and School Council members.
We are located in the suburb of Mirrabooka, approximately 14 kilometres north east of the Perth CBD.
