About our school
Welcome to Belair Primary School.
For more than 100 years, Belair Primary School has provided excellence in teaching and learning within a supportive, inclusive and engaging environment. Our values of Respect, Responsibility, Achievement and Creativity underpin all aspects of school life and guide our commitment to helping every student achieve their personal best.
We provide a high-quality education for students from Reception to Year 6 through the South Australian and Australian Curriculum. As an accredited International Baccalaureate World School, we deliver learning through the Primary Years Programme, encouraging students to become inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people.
Students at Belair benefit from a broad range of learning opportunities, including specialist programs in Physical Education, Science, Japanese and The Arts, as well as a variety of extra-curricular activities that support the development of individual talents, confidence and success.
We value the strong partnership between school and home and warmly welcome families as part of our school community.
I invite you to learn more about Belair Primary School through a Principal’s tour, held regularly throughout the year. Tour dates are advertised on our website and in our newsletter, and bookings can be made by contacting the school.
