About the project
We're building a new primary school in Fraser Rise. It will open for day 1 of Term 1 in 2026 and have places for up to 525 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:
- 2 learning neighbourhoods
- an administration and library building
- outdoor hard courts
- a community hub with indoor multi-use court, canteen and arts/music spaces
- a sports field
- a car park.

Your new school name
The school was known by its interim name, Plumpton Primary School, during planning and design. Wiyal Primary School was chosen as this new school’s name following community and Traditional Owner group consultation. Wiyal (pronounced wee-yil) is a Wurundjeri Woi wurrung language word meaning peppermint tree.
