Ashfield Primary School has an active P&C and invites new parents to become involved. The P&C are heavily involved in the positive promotion of the school within the community. This has seen the school celebrate its diversity with Cultural Celebration Days and Christmas Extravaganzas. The P&C run the Uniform Shop and School Banking on Thursday mornings. Ashfield Primary School was established in February 1955. Ashfield is a very small suburb that is surrounded by four distinct boundaries. The school's catchment area extends to Wyatt Road and Wright Crescent in the west (Tonkin Highway), to Shackleton Street in the east, Guildford Road and the Perth/Midland railway line in the North and Swan River in the South.
