Our Vision
To empower students to create positive futures through high quality teaching.

Our values are Respect, responsibility, confidence, safety and security and fun. These values underpin all that we do. We develop students' social skills, creativity, problem solving, self confidence and ability to access and process knowledge. We provide a safe, happy, caring, supportive and positive environment in which children develop empathy for others, responsibility, and a strong desire to learn and achieve.

The school is recognised for its excellent programmes in a diverse range of areas such as the music, drama, science, and sport and students have access to many extra-curricula activities such as aerobics, Pedal Prix and orchestra. Programmes are child-centred, success orientated and children are encouraged to take risks without fear of failure. Children are also provided with opportunities to develop skills for independent learning and self-motivation.

The school prides itself on having parent/teacher relationships that enhance the learning opportunities available to students and believes that teachers and parents are partners in an education programme.

The school programme is further enriched by involvement with the community and projects which allow students to demonstrate active involvement in their learning. We have a very active Governing Council.

Ardtornish Primary School (R-7) is located 20km North East of the Adelaide city centre and there is an interesting history behind its establishment and name. See us on a map.
