Pullenvale State School will foster quality learning for each student. The school serves the suburbs of Pullenvale, Pinjarra Hills and Anstead. A school has operated in the Pullenvale area since 1874, opening with 37 students. The school has a current enrolment of about 400. It is now only able to accept new enrolments from within the boundaries of a catchment map that was mutually agreed upon. The school offers an engaging and challenging curriculum, from a strong play-based Prep curriculum through to a diverse Middle School program which prepares students for the transition to high school. Students will have opportunities to engage with music, physical education, LOTE (Japanese - currently from Prep-7), Library skills and ICT during the course of the school week. A positive 'Nurturing the Nest' values philosophy is implemented throughout the school, with proactive and explicit teaching of values, social and life skills across the school. The focus of these programs is on nurturing self, others and the environment.
