Upper Swan Primary is situated in the Swan Valley near to where the Swan River crosses the Great Northern Highway. It caters for 360 students from kindergarten to year 7. The school is surrounded by vineyards, orchards and hobby farms. Upper Swan is steeped in the history of the valley with many families having sent several generations of children to the school. In 2005 marked the centenary of the school. Students are mostly drawn from Brigadoon, Baskerville, Henley Brook, The Vines and Upper Swan. The vast majority of students commute to the school by bus or by car. Almost all students have English as their first language. The recent resources boom has seen many families from the United Kingdom move in to the local area. The parent body is supportive of the school and keen to ensure our resources and facilities are up to date. They run a range of events that raise funds and build community spirit. The teaching staff includes two advanced skilled teachers as well as a number of Senior Teachers. We have one principal and two associate principals. Specialist programs include Indonesian, Music, Visual Arts and Physical Education.
