WELCOME TO LONGFORD PRIMARY SCHOOL

Welcome to the Longford Primary School Website. Our school has a population of almost 150 students and is located 7 kilometres from Sale.

Our school is renowned for its excellent history of parental involvement in its programs. This dedication has become a vital component in the ongoing education and welfare of students. Our school lives through its values of integrity, respect, responsibility and excellence.  These values are embedded and displayed widely through our school.

Academically our school promotes and values the explicit teaching of literacy and numeracy. We do this through having a consistent teaching approach across all year levels. We aim to cater for each individual student’s learning needs by focussing on their academic progress in addition to their achievement. Students are supported to think critically and use effective learning habits to achieve success.

Longford has a proud history of co-curricular success with students participating in the local eisteddfods, art shows and a range of sporting events including swimming, cross country and athletics. This combined with our specialist areas of art, music and physical education lead to a very balanced curriculum.

We consider ourselves very fortunate working at a school where the entire community is focused on delivering great educational opportunities to its students. Enjoy browsing through our website and please contact us for further information.
