"The Happiness School"
Belvedere Park Primary School is a dynamic learning community located in Seaford, a bayside suburb of Melbourne. We currently have an enrolment of just over 300 students. This is the perfect size to run a diverse curriculum and to establish positive relationships between students, parents and teachers. In partnership our school and community provide a safe, challenging, stimulating, attractive, motivating and friendly environment which promotes optimal learning. Belvedere Park has an inviting and friendly atmosphere where parents, staff and students work together to nurture the love of learning.
Values which form the basis of our actions at Belvedere Park are respect, responsibility, honesty, kindness, courtesy, empathy, initiative and resilience. A strong focus on positive, respectful and supportive relationships between all members of our school community is a high priority and at the centre of everything we do.
Belvedere Park promotes high standards in Numeracy, Literacy, Information and Communication Technologies, along with a healthy and fit lifestyle. Team planning by extremely talented staff based on high expectations for student achievement underpins our core purpose of providing flexible programs that accommodate a variety of learning and teaching styles.
A major strength Belvedere Park enjoys every day is its positive, supportive and happy school culture - the basis for successful student outcomes.
