Community Diversity Opportunity
Yarraman Oaks Primary School is situated in Liege Avenue, Noble Park, in a quiet suburban street with ample on-street parking available. We are surrounded by well-established homes, close to public transport and the Eastlink Tollway.
We offer pleasant surroundings, which will be enhanced by new buildings that will be ready for us towards the end of this year.
The schoolgrounds are large and spacious and include a full-size football oval for our students' use.
Community Diversity Opportunity
We are committed to ongoing learning for our whole community and the provision of a personlised education for our diverse student needs.
We believe that all children have individual interests, passions and talents and we are dedicated to providing the opportunity for these to be developed.

Drum lessons, choir, guitar lessons, Environment Group, Active After Schools program, Tennis Australia tennis lessons, A.F.L. football program, Rugby Union coaching, school performances, school Art Show, Student Leadership program, Peer Mediation program and Meditation Program (as reported on Channel 7 News and The Age newspaper).
Community of Learners
All students are involved in the Walker Learning Approach, which is based on Investigative Learning from Prep to year 2 and inquiry-based learning in years 3 to 6.
All children have literacy and numeracy every day, where skills are explicitly taught.
We form a partnership with our parents, so we can all continue to learn how to provide for each individual child's academic, social and emotional needs.
We support our parents in learning how to provide the best for their children through school-based support group meetings and connecting them with external agencies shere appropriate.
All Yarraman staff continue to learn through:
-
School-based coaching, the provision of external mentoring, school-based and external professional development and working within Professional Learning Teams.
Diversity Celebrated
Learning is personalised to allow each child to reach their potential and experience success.
Individual learning needs are supported and provided for across the curriculum.
We cater for students who have English as a second language.
