SCHOOL HISTORY

Steeped in history, North Melbourne Primary School’s main building dates back to 1874. Once situated on the main road to the goldfields, it is one of the few schools close to the city.

The student community of our school reflects the diversity of the surrounding neighbourhoods with children from more than 40 different national backgrounds. The community connects with the nearby academic and medical institutions, docklands precinct and inner-city dwellers and workers. This brings together a unique and diverse school community that benefits from wide-ranging cultural experiences.

North Melbourne Primary School strives to create a responsive, cooperative innovative teaching and learning environment. We aim for the development of the whole person as a committed lifelong learner, who embraces self development, achievement and contributes to their community.

Quote from Principal about North Melbourne Football Club’s commitment to reconnect with the community:

"We applaud the initiative of North Melbourne Football Club reconnecting with our school community. Sport is an integral component of our curriculum as is leadership. We anticipate that the Club and Team Leaders will support us as positive role models demonstrating how well developed skills, practise and perseverance help achieve success."
