Currimundi Primary School is a great State School by the beach. We use its unique coastal environment as a basis for building a shared vision for learning. The School is situated in idyllic conditions just a few steps from the rock pools, dunes and surf of the beautiful Dicky Beach.“Riding the Waves to Success” sums up our belief that all students can enjoy success if they are empowered through knowledge and skills to be creative and reflective thinkers, effective communicators, active participants, keen investigators and problem solvers.Our Teaching Teams design innovative, purposeful and integrated learning units that equip our students for future success. Parents and the Local Community share in student learning by providing support and encouragement.
Literacy and Numeracy skills and practices are the corner stone of all learning and an integral part of all activities. Integrated Units of Study founded in English, Mathematics, Science and Technology, Study of Society and the Environment, Health and Physical Education, the Arts, LOTE (Languages other than English – Italian) provide opportunities for the transfer of learned skills to real life situations.
