At Somerville Primary School, we are committed to providing excellence in education...every student, every time. We are a vibrant and high-performing learning community where every decision is guided by our shared vision of developing confident, capable and compassionate young people.
Our vision is to create a school community where students actively engage in high-quality education, becoming confident lifelong learners who make a positive impact on the world. This vision is brought to life through our motto, Striving. Growing. Shining. We believe learning is a continual journey, and we seek educators who share this mindset and are passionate about helping every child reach their full potential.
Our values of Respect, Responsibility, Resilience and Kindness underpin every aspect of school life. They shape the relationships we build, the decisions we make and the culture we foster across our entire community. We believe that when students feel known, valued and supported, they are empowered to achieve both academically and personally.
Located in the heart of the Mornington Peninsula, Somerville Primary School provides an attractive, safe and engaging learning environment for approximately 400 students. Families consistently choose our school because of its strong sense of community, welcoming culture and the genuine relationships developed between students, staff and families. While we continue to grow and evolve, we have intentionally maintained the connectedness and personalised approach that makes our school unique.
