Miandetta Primary School, Tasmania

ABOUT THE SCHOOL
Miandetta Primary School is situated in Berrigan Road, Devonport, Tasmania. We are behind Home Hill, the family residence of Enid and Joseph Lyons (Prime Minster of Australia 1932-1937). We overlook the city and Bass Strait. Built in 1970 and refurbished during 2010 and 2013, our single unit classrooms are spacious, with wet areas and kitchenettes. All have interactive whiteboards, computers and iPads. We have an administration block, library, music room and practice rooms and a multipurpose facility. The grounds include extensive grass areas, oval, vegetable gardens, netball/basketball courts and two designated paly areas. Seven shade shelters also provide additional teaching and learning spaces. Our staff are professional, experienced, skilled and committed.

School caters for students from Kindergarten to Grade 6 who are generally friendly, courteous and eager to learn. Students wear our uniform with pride and enthusiastically participate in all aspects of school life. We have positive parent involvement and support. Like staff, our parents want the children to be safe, happy, challenged and successful. Our school is guided by its Vision Statement and our Motto.
