A Guide to the School

Montrose Primary School is located at the heart of Montrose, a township which is situated at the foothills of the Dandenong Ranges. The school was established in 1880 and has a long and celebrated history of serving the learning needs of the people in this district.

At Montrose Primary School our aim is to create a safe, inclusive and respectful learning environment where positive behaviour is explicitly taught, consistently acknowledged, and actively supported. Through a whole-school approach, we aim to foster a culture of kindness, respect, resilience, and responsibility, empowering all students to be their best selves—socially, emotionally, and academically.

Montrose Primary School’s vision is to provide every child with a solid foundation and passion for lifelong learning with a strong sense of belonging and connection to their community.

Montrose Primary School’s mission is to provide a high-quality education in a happy, safe, supportive and inclusive learning environment where every child can reach their full potential.

We welcome all interested community members to our school. Individual school tours can be arranged at 9.15am or 10.15am Monday-Wednesday during the week with the Principal or Assistant Principal. Simply contact us and we will be most happy to discuss our programs and take you on a tour of our classrooms and grounds.
