Welcome
Rose Park Primary was established in 1893 in a picturesque inner suburban location only minutes from the city centre. The school is housed in the main building built in 1893. Our main teaching area was erected in 1923. A church building, built in 1899, houses another three classes, while the new school Centenary Hall is a modern addition.
Our school is zoned, and continues its history as a well respected and popular high performing school. Our current focus is on inquiry and Information and Communication Technology. The school has a wireless internet connection, and makes available laptops for student use. Most Year 6/7 students bring their own laptop, which is encouraged. Additionally, every classroom is fitted with interactive whiteboards. The school is now a candidate school for the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Program, with authorisation planned for 2011.
We have a strong focus on after-school sport and offer Japanese and music as specialist subjects. More than 150 students in the school are involved in our music program, which includes choirs, bands, ensembles and an orchestra, who all perform regularly. We also have an Old Scholars Association.
