Welcome to Derinya Primary School
We strive to develop compassionate global citizens through shared values and high expectations who think creatively and are responsible and caring life long learners.
At the heart of the educational program of learning and experience at Derinya Primary School is the welfare and happiness of our students in their school life. We are proud of our unique caring community, whose aspirations and attitudes in general are mirrored in our children.
Throughout Derinya, the values of friendship, responsibility, respect, integrity, humour, optimism and resilience can be seen everywhere. As a community, we believe if we live these values day to day then we will be amazing life long learners.
