Welcome to Brighton Beach Primary School
At Brighton Beach we believe that every face has a place and learning is for everyone. Communication, collaboration, caring, self-responsibility, deep understanding and being open to learning through inquiry are key elements. In an inclusive environment, where all children are supported to be themselves, students are challenged and supported as learners to be the best that they can be.
Our 6R school values and our purpose to ‘build pathways to success’ support the development and implementation of the school Strategic Plan and provide direction for everything we do.
Our shared expectations are intended to support all students and families who join our community.
“Building better pathways to success by creating a community of global learners.”
Brighton Beach Primary School encourages positive contributions to personal, local and global learning communities. We consider and respect others, foster high levels of literacy and numeracy, and the ability to think logically, critically and creatively.
