Welcome to
Camp Hill Primary School
We would like to acknowledge that our school is on Dja Dja Wurrung country and pay our respects to the Djaara people who are the Traditional Custodians of the land. We would also like to pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging. The history, culture, diversity and value of all Aboriginal people are recognised, acknowledged and respected.
Camp Hill Primary School aims to develop in each student an ability to maximise their potential and respect for themselves and others. We maintain and continue to build a school culture which is positive, stimulating, harmonious and safe. The School Wide Positive Behaviour, Healthy Places Healthy Futures and Respectful Relationships programs support the promotion of student wellbeing and engagement.
Parents are welcome and encouraged to participate in all school activities and to become partners with their teachers in developing positive educational outcomes for their students.
PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE
Originally with 1200 students on-site, Camp Hill Primary School has a long history of providing care and a quality education to the students of Bendigo and surrounding areas.
Camp Hill provides students with the opportunity to thrive through immersion in inquiry-based learning and a multitude of co-curricular activities.
