North Haven Primary School, North Haven, SA

School statement
North Haven Primary School offers a comprehensive education with a teaching focus on literacy, numeracy and science. 'Teaching Handwriting Reading and Spelling Skills' (THRASS) is a tool used by teachers to explicitly teach the English orthography. We also have a specialist teacher for Japanese, active student voice committees and our students are involved in a range of sporting activities both in the community and through the school. We enjoy strong links with our community through a shared passion for environmental education and have recently been voted the 'Greenest School' by our community. We offer students the chance to be trained as 'Dolphin Rangers' - a marine education program. We have a close working connection with our local kindergarten, with transition to school being a major focus under our 'Early Years, Strong Beginnings' priority. We are a candidate school for the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Program. The school's values are respect, responsibility, honesty, success and care. These values are reinforced by the implementation of a two-week social skills development program implemented at the beginning of each year. Visit the school website.
