Facilities
Our grounds are exceptional thanks to the foresight of past generations, giving our school a unique environment. Many visitors enthuse at our pleasant grounds, mature trees and unrivalled views. We are fortunate to have shady, grassed playing areas, an oval, a large sandpit, cubby house, 2 playgrounds, a climbing wall, a covered deck for quiet activities and plenty of trees and shrubs to explore. The huge, undercover multi-purpose area is used extensively for summer and winter activities, providing an additional asset in our playground. This is a school ground with lots to offer in its variety of play options. The erection of the new school building in 2012 gave the school a major facelift in the grounds and gardens.
The school recently had major improvements with the erection of a whole new school building. This building houses three classes, general office, principals office, staffroom and a huge common room. The building also has a sickbay and student and staff toilets.
In 2014 the school erected a new unique to Tawonga Primary School Playground. The new structure took advantage of some old playground materials and supplies and services kindly donated by school families.
In 2024 Tawonga Primary received a grant to replace aging play equipment with a new playground.
In 2015 Tawonga Primary School received a Communities for Nature Grant which allowed us to redevelop the 'gully area'. With this we removed a concrete pipe and installed native trees and giant boulders for children to play on. This opened up the area an in years to come will become a beautifully treed area.
During 2015 the school received a Food and Fibre grant which allowed the school to grow vegetable and fruit varieties for use in the new industrial style kitchen which was built during 2015 also. A new program began each week where students were either involved in cooking, making or gardening. This was well received and has taught students where our food comes from and the processes which food goes through before it reaches our tables.
In 2016 the school added Chickens to our yard in a specially made Chicken Coop out the side of the school. These chickens will produce eggs which will be used in our cooking program.
2021 saw the opening of our new undercover inclusive sandpit. Children can now enjoy playing in the sandpit no matter the weather.
The school is also home to Tawonga Kindergarten which caters for both 3 and 4 year olds. This service runs on Mondays Wednesdays and Thursdays. All enquiries regarding Tawonga Kiinder can be made by calling Tawonga Primary School.
Before and After School Care is available each week day and during school holidays for families to use. This service begins at 6.00am and finishes at 7.00pm. Mount Beauty Primary School runs this program out of our school.
