About the project

We’re building a new primary school in Armstrong Creek. It will open for day one of Term 1 in 2026 and have places for up to 650 students, from Prep to Year 6.

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

When open for Term 1, 2026 the school will include:

  • an administration and library building including spaces for art, science and food technology
  • 3 learning neighbourhoods
  • hard courts
  • a sports field
  • a community hub building.

The school is open for enrolments for students in Foundation (Prep) to Grade 6.

Your new school name

The school was known by its interim name, Warralily Park Primary School, during planning and design. Biyala Primary School was chosen as this new school’s name following community and Traditional Owner group consultation. Biyala (pronounced bee-ah-lah) is a Wadawurrung word meaning place of biyal (red gum).
