All About Angle Vale Primary School
Angle Vale Primary is a middle-sized
primary school located 14km west of Gawler. The school was first
established in the late 1800s and was redeveloped in 1989 and again in
1996 due to growing township numbers. The school caters for children
from Reception through to Year 7 (R-7). There are approximately
390 students attending this year
(2008). Enrolment numbers are expected to rise above 400 students in 2009
due to new housing developments being built within the local community.
New classrooms may need to be built to
accommodate the increase in student numbers.
The school grounds are very
spacious, well kept and environmentally attractive. The grounds are a
shared facility and support local sporting clubs. The school facilities are the
only venue available in Angle Vale to accommodate sport. Tennis
courts, cricket pitch, soccer / football oval, gymnasium and a community
club room are located on the premises. A joint use agreement is in
place between Playford City Council for the use of grounds, playing
fields and gymnasium.
The school has an Out of School Hours Care facility
that offers Before School Care, After School Care and Vacation Care to school aged children.
This facility is also available to children who do not attend Angle Vale
Primary.
The rural
nature of Angle Vale Primary School provides the growing community
with a first class educational and recreational facility. The school is
rapidly becoming the hub of activity in Angle Vale. It is attractive to
staff in terms of teaching environments, resources and supportive school
community. The school provides a strong focus for the community that
will become more cohesive through the increased use of the facilities
and as local teams and competitions continue to emerge and develop. The
school currently has a positive ethos and is held in high regard by the
community. The growing enrolments and confidence in the school, will
further strengthen its capacity to well serve its students and community
in the future.
