My granddaughter attends Osborne Primary and her brother enrolling in 2025. I myself had many amazing years in the public school system.

The hope is to bring a rewarding and enriching schooling experience for the children building on their knowledge, skills and values preparing them for a future.
Community Representative - Peggy Hutchinson
My neighbour and I volunteer in the garden in front of the Pre-Primary because we love nature and wanted to help create something beautiful. I have always liked the following quote by John F. Kennedy: “Children are the living messages we send to a future we will not see”. I look forward to working with people committed to giving each child the care and skills needed for that future.
