Welcome to Palmview State Primary School
2024 marks our 4th year of operation. We are looking forward to consolidating our strong, foundation years by continuing successful learning and teaching practices and introducing new initiatives to further enhance student learning.
The collaborative assessment of student work (CASW) in English and Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden (SAKG) program will continue to be a feature of our operations. Exciting developments in 2023 were our inaugural Year 6 Sydney/Canberra trip and our recognition as an Apple Distinguished School (ADS) by our school's demonstration of achievement against the ADS rubric categories of inspire, imagine and impact. There are only 728 ADS across 36 countries worldwide. As of September 2023, there were only 11 ADS in Queensland. At Palmview we connect students to the world, fuel creativity, deepen collaboration, and make learning personal.
Our three key priorities, which align to our shared Trust/Connect/Grow shared vision remain.
- Trust (Effective implementation of our Positive Behaviour for Learning matrix)
- Connect (personalised student eLearning via strategic use of the iPad)
- Grow (strong student Australian Curriculum English learning outcomes)
Our school opened in 2021 with just over 200 students. In 2024 we look forward to leading the learning and partnering with parents and carers for over 540 students.
Kind regards
Andrew Walker
Principal
