Our Mission Statement


“Pembroke School will provide high quality education which recognises individual and cultural needs.”

From our Principal

Pembroke School prides itself on being a school where children are treated as individuals. We encourage our children to be themselves and to develop as individuals. At the same time, we emphasise the need for them to be aware of their responsibilities to others both at school and in the wider community.
At the school we like to encourage all parents to become involved and wish to promote our open-door policy. Please feel that you can come and discuss any points of concern about your children no matter how small they may seem. Remember feedback helps to inform us whether we are meeting the needs of children and parents alike.
Please do not hesitate to contact the school at any time. All teachers like to think our parents feel comfortable in coming to discuss learning and health matters. We really care about the progress and development of all children and know good information and a positive home-school partnership is essential.
Most children commence school on or just after their fifth birthday – but not before that date. All children must start school by their sixth birthday. If you have arrived from overseas your child will require the right type of Visa.
We encourage parents to pre enrol as early as possible so we can plan staffing and organise transition visits so your child joins our school in the best way possible.
In order to plan ahead, we like to keep a list of pre-school children, both those who have older brothers and sisters at the school and those others who are in our school district. Please inform the school when you know of pre-school children that will attend Pembroke. Our Junior Syndicate leader likes to be able to visit the students’ pre-schools and will set up familiarization visits at school prior to their school starting day.
We hope you find the information in this booklet both interesting and informative. If you require further information, please feel free to contact the school.
