About the project

Ashley Park Primary School (formerly known as Yarrambat Park Primary School – interim name) will accommodate up to 475 students from Prep to Year 6. We opened the first stage for Term 1, 2019. The school received an additional $5.27 million in the 2018–19 State Budget for the second stage of the project – constructing a performing arts and physical education facility that opened in Term 1, 2019. 

This school, designed by Architectus and K2LD as part of the Growth Areas Schools Project, was a winner of the 'Minister's Award for Excellence' in the 2019 Victorian School Design Awards.

Keren Barro was appointed as the foundation principal of Ashley Park Primary School. Check out the Ashley Park Primary School website. The school also has an official Facebook page. Follow it for all the latest news.

Orchard Road Community and Early Learning Centre is located next to Ashley Park Primary School, helping local children make a smooth transition from pre-school and reducing the number of drop-offs for some parents with kinder and school-aged children.
