One of the first things visitors notice when they arrive at Gladesville Primary School is our beautiful, spacious grounds. Families, prospective students and visitors regularly comment on the w welcoming environment, spacious play areas and outstanding outdoor learning spaces that make our school unique.

​

Our expansive grounds provide students with opportunities to be active, creative and connected throughout the school day. Rather than having just one playground, our students enjoy a range of unique outdoor environments, each offering something different.

​

Our outdoor facilities include:

• A beautiful shaded nature play space featuring a yarning circle and outdoor amphitheatre

• A large grass oval for sport, games and outdoor learning

• Cricket practice nets

• A large sandpit for imaginative and collaborative play

• Our farm area, complete with vegetable garden beds, fruit trees and composting bins

• Multiple shaded playgrounds 

• Two basketball courts, including one fully covered for year-round use

• A large outdoor chessboard that encourages strategic thinking and social play

• A large bike storage shed

• Multiple downball courts, hopscotch grids etc 

​

These spaces are much more than places to play, they are extensions of our classrooms. Students learn through hands-on experiences in our kitchen garden, build teamwork and resilience through active play, develop creativity in nature-based environments, and strengthen friendships through shared outdoor experiences.

​

Our beautiful grounds reflect our commitment to providing a safe, engaging and inspiring environment where every child can learn, grow and thrive.
