Hewett Primary School is located on the northern edge of Gawler and is part of a precinct offering comprehensive education and care services. We are co-located with the Elsie Ey Kindergarten, a toy library, the Hewett Church of Christ and a community facility. We have a strong focus on literacy and numeracy skill development for all students and this is supported by a comprehensive range of intervention programs. The school also hosts a unit for students with intellectual disabilities. Student wellbeing is supported through whole school programs including school values, 'Student Voice' and peer support. Science is being taught and developed through the use of the 'Primary Connections' program. ICT, including interactive whiteboards, is used extensively and effectively across the curriculum. Specialist subjects are currently Japanese and PE. The school offers an Out of School Hours Care service and a private childcare centre is situated adjacent to the school. The school is a relatively new site with excellent facilities.
