About Monks Orchard Primary School

At Monks Orchard, everything we do starts with our children and our community. We know our children as individuals; as young people with dreams and ambitions, skills and difficulties, likes and dislikes - not just as statistics. A child’s family and community are a vital ingredient in a successful education.

"A great school with some areas for improvement"

We're really pleased with Monks Orchard for the most part, but we've had a few issues with communication between teachers and parents. The school's values and focus on community are wonderful, but we feel that some of the facilities could be improved upon. Overall, it's a great school and we're glad our child is there.

"Excellent education, wonderful memories"

Our son went to Monks Orchard from Nursery to Year 6 and we couldn't be happier with the education he received. The teachers were always supportive and the school's focus on individuality and creativity really helped him develop as a person. We have many fond memories of his time at the school.
