About the project

We're building a primary school. It will open in 2027 with places for up to 700 students.

This school will help meet increasing enrolment demand from a growing local population. It will ease pressure on surrounding schools and help local students get high-quality education close to home.

When open for Term 1, 2027 the school will include:

  • 2 learning neighbourhoods
  • an administration and library building with spaces for specialist subjects
  • a community hub
  • a sports field
  • outdoor hardcourts
  • a staff carpark.

Principal appointment

Tami-Jo Richter has been appointed principal of Barramayil Primary School. She has strong ties to Melbourne’s western suburbs.

Your new school’s name

The school was known by its interim name, Aintree North Primary School, during planning and design. Barramayil Primary School was chosen as this new school’s name following community and Traditional Owner group consultation. Barramayil (pronounced BAH-rah-mile) is a Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung language word meaning emu.
