Craigslea State Primary School has proudly served the West Chermside community in the northern suburbs of Brisbane since its establishment in 1972. Craigslea State School values Learning, Individuals, Friendship and Environment. At Craigslea we are committed to providing a quality public education that delivers opportunities for all students to achieve learning outcomes and reach their potential. As a school community we aim to provide a safe, progressive, focussed and supportive learning environment. We encourage every student to aspire to intellectual, social, emotional and physical success in line with our motto of 'Learn for Life'. The culture of our school celebrates diversity and our inclusive practices support students with a wide range of abilities and cultural backgrounds. The school currently consists of 28 general learning classroom areas, four of which have been designed for the preparatory year learning program. All classes in the school, from Prep to Year 7, are co-educational. We are very fortunate to be located beside Craigslea State High School which allows us to develop learning programs that utilise the specialised facilities available and create a smooth transition from Years 7 to 8.
