MILLARS WELL PRIMARY SCHOOL Competitors

Duncraig Primary School also offers a comprehensive student services team that caters for the social, emotional and health needs of the children in our care. This includes access to support from a chaplain, psychologist and nurse. Our school grounds are extensive, with a large oval, several playgrounds, a unique nature play area and a well-resourced kitchen garden. The school is fully air-conditioned and our facilities include a library, science, visual art and music rooms and two undercover areas. We have a school canteen that operates three days a week and offers low cost, nutritious food for both morning tea and lunch. Before and after school care for students is available on our school site, operated by a qualified private provider. The Duncraig Primary School parent community is an integral part of our school. As an independent public school, our school board is a major governing body that consists of parents, staff and community representatives. The school also has an active Parent and Citizens' Association. Parent involvement in school activities is welcomed and regularly occurs in both classrooms and during school events. We look forward to welcoming you to Duncraig Primary School and supporting your child to achieve their potential as confident, independent and life-long learners.
