Stansbury Primary School is a small school situated on the east coast of Yorke Peninsula approximately 200km from Adelaide. Our agreed motto is ‘Preparing for the Future’ and this underpins all of our learning. Our major teaching focus is on literacy, numeracy and science. We operate three mixed-year-level classes in the morning and two in the afternoon to maximise our learning in literacy and numeracy. The school is an integral part of our local community and works with the Tidy Towns group on environmental projects. We are an Australian Sustainable Schools Initiative (AuSSI) school and are involved in a pilot project with neighbouring schools Edithburgh and Port Vincent in developing units of work including the cross curriculum priority of sustainability. Having been a Values Education Good Practice School we begin the school year with a focus on our three values of friendliness, honesty and persistence. We continue a whole-school values program throughout the year. Our Christian pastoral support worker is a valued member of our staff. All students are involved in decision-making through class meetings and our student governance groups – environment and PR/special events. We have close relationships with other feeder schools and Minlaton District School which is the local high school that the majority of our students attend. Year 7 students are involved in interaction and transition days with all schools in the cluster. Our school grounds and buildings are equipped for the future due to recent BER projects. There is a play centre on site and after school care is provided during term time.
