Welcome to Upper Sturt Primary School

Our size enables everyone to feel part of the school community, making for a 'family' atmosphere, where there is care and concern for each other.

The school engages in whole-school activities, including: camp, swimming, drama productions, and themes - providing opportunity for all to share common experiences.

The grounds offer an exciting diversity for educational experiences and playtime. We have an asphalt area, a well-equipped and landscaped adventure playground with an amphitheatre, and a large oval. An added feature is approximately 3/4 of a hectare of native scrub, with a large variety of native flora including twenty varieties of native terrestrial orchids. This Bushland is now a Heritage Listed Area.

Parents are informed of what happens in the school through regular newsletters, and special parent, council and class newsletters, conferences, student workbooks and information nights. Regular assemblies showcase student activities such as music, singing, dance and drama.

We offer a broad curriculum geared to equipping students for the future.

We have a dedicated teaching staff who use the SA Curriculum, Standards and Accountability framework to teach, assess and report on student achievement across all the eight learning areas
