The school provides a focal point for the local community and we enjoy a wide range of community participation at the school.

There has been a school on the site since 1868 so we have a long tradition of community involvement.

The community of Wallington is largely made up of 'small acreage allotments', designed for a low density population. This factor creates a fairly stable enrolment for the school.

However, the size, rural aspect, magnificent environment and positive reputation of the school have attracted many students from a wider area.

Many pass by other government schools to attend Wallington P.S.

The school comprises of a modern main administration area and classrooms. The addition of a new Multi

The playground is spacious and provides our students
