We take pride in celebrating diversity and creating an inclusive environment where every student is uniquely cared for. Our school community is made up of students from various cultural backgrounds, fostering a rich tapestry of experiences and perspectives.

Reviews
"Not truly bilingual. 'Sold' to us as a bilingual school, but the reality after 5 years is very different. Our sons have had the same teachers REPEATEDLY and that is not helpful or healthy. New staff member decides to give 'free time' on multiple days, with little accountability. Sons are strong with Maths but seem to play a game called '24' regularly. Stir things up someone"
"went to this school in the seventies good memories Nick.G would call me a skip"
"Lovely school with a small, tight-knit community. They have a strong focus on child wellbeing, a great new principal and excellent teachers."
"A solid school: our kids have integrated easily and have friends in many year levels. There may be less physical resources here than at some bigger schools but the community is vibrant and the kids are happy. Stanley, the new principal this year, is bringing renewed focus and cohesion to the place from all accounts."
"Abbotsford Primary School is a fabulous primary school, providing a world-class bilingual Chinese - English program to a small and diverse school community. The principal, teachers, students and school families alike provide a nurturing, inclusive and stimulating environment, fostering a love of learning, a sense of belonging and a global perspective amongst its students. I couldn’t recommend it more highly."
