Skye Primary School

Our students are at the heart of everything we do!

Welcome to Skye Primary School! We are a school where students feel safe, supported, and excited about learning. We’re proud of our strong sense of community and the positive, inclusive culture that makes Skye PS such a great place to learn and grow.

At Skye, our core values—Respect, Responsibility, Resilience, and Relationships—guide how we learn and interact every day. We want every child to develop confidence, curiosity, and a strong sense of belonging, both in our school and the world beyond.

We know that children thrive when they feel connected and supported, so wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do. Through structured routines, positive behaviour strategies, and a trauma-informed approach, we’ve created an environment where students feel secure and ready to engage in their learning.

When it comes to learning, we focus on getting the foundations right. We take an Explicit Direct Instruction (EDI) approach to teaching Literacy and Numeracy, ensuring students receive clear, structured lessons that build their skills progressively. This evidence-based approach helps all students, no matter their starting point, to develop confidence and mastery in key learning areas.

Our teachers work closely together, using student data and ongoing professional learning to continuously improve their teaching. Collaboration is a big part of our school culture—we know that when we work as a team, our students benefit the most.

We’re also fortunate to have fantastic facilities, including a modern gym, music room, library, and a revitalised STEAM centre, all designed to give students the best opportunities to explore, create, and grow.

Families are a huge part of our school community, and we love working together to support each child’s learning journey. We welcome you to visit, take a tour, and experience the wonderful community at Skye PS.
