Dromana Primary School has served the communities of McCrae, Safety Beach and Dromana since its establishment in 1861. There is a great sense of pride among the school community, particularly in regard to its programs, positive learning environment and its excellent facilities and amenities. Approximately 450 students are enrolled at the school.
The school seeks to prepare our students for future pathways by developing creative thinkers and independent, motivated learners. We promote positive self-image, respect for others, self discipline, community participation, problem solving, life skills such as responsibility, effective communication skills and inquiring minds. We actively encourage students to develop to their full potential by recognising and rewarding achievement. Student leadership and voice is promoted with opportunities for students be involved in the school through Junior School Council, a House System and student leaders.
The school provides students with a high quality education in an orderly, stimulating and attractive environment. The curriculum is based on a comprehensive seven year sequential learning program contained in the Victorian Essential Learning Standards (VELS). Literacy and Numeracy are a focus for improvement.
