Doncaster Gardens Primary
School emerged in 1997, following the restructure of Waldau and Doncaster
East primary schools.
With a stable school population of 480 children, the school is situated
in a landscaped & well shaded playground environment in Doncaster East.
Doncaster Gardens can truly be called a multi-cultural community with
students from Australian, European, Asian, African and Middle Eastern
backgrounds.
At our school we have a continuing commitment to the achievement of
excellence and maintenance of an environment where learning is valued and
supported by all.
Doncaster Gardens is a wonderful site for children to make their formal
beginning to a lifetime of learning.
School Strategic Plan
School goals and priority areas are set out in the School Strategic Plan
and Annual Implementation Plan. This document sets out the directions
that the school will take over a three year period. The Strategic Plan
identifies the School Profile, Goals, Priorities, Curriculum profile,
Codes of Practice for the School Council, Principal, Staff and
Community, Student Code of Conduct, Accountability, Monitoring and
Reporting procedures, Budget Summary and the Record of Understanding.
Copies are available from the office. The Strategic Plan provides the basis for all school operations, curriculum delivery,
accountability and resourcing. Doncaster Gardens Primary School has
completed its second strategic plan cycle and has been selected to
complete a negotiated review during 2008. A new Strategic Plan,
for 2009-2012, will be completed by the end of the year.
Doncaster Gardens PS has a comprehensive set of policies covering all school
activities. All school policies are reviewed through minor and major evaluation.
Those policies that require funding are linked to Program Budgets, which
are collectively resourced through the Global Budget allocated to the school
by DEECD, additional levies, fundraising and donations.
School policies are housed in the Policy Manual and along with the School
Strategic Plan, are available for loan from the general office.
