2026 continues to be an exciting year for our school as we enter our thirty-ninth year of operation.

Our enrolments remain strong, with approximately 600 Pre-Primary to Year 6 students at the start of the year.

Forest Crescent Primary School is an Independent Public School, operating within the Government System, sitting in the locality of Forest Lakes, Thornlie.  The school is a large primary school and part of a strong community that supports its strategic directions. Our vision of “Success for All” aligns with our belief that “In Learning We Grow” and builds on student, staff, and parent learning as we move forward as a collective.

Our local demographic is changing, and staff value the diversity of our students and the inclusive practices used within the school.

As a school, we have high expectations of our students and staff, and our school community supports this and takes pride in “their” school.  We are driven to do the best we can for our students socially, emotionally and academically. We have embraced BeYou as a School Community, ensuring that students, staff and parents are supported.

Our Specialist Programs (Music, Visual Arts, LOTE and Physical Education) have been highly successful over many years and help define the overall educational experience students receive at Forest Crescent.

Early intervention has been one of our school’s key focus areas for many years, supported by school-based benchmarks and strong relationships with parents.

I trust that you will enjoy browsing our Website, which has been designed to be more user-friendly and provide parents with up-to-date information about the school and its operations.

At Forest Crescent PS we have a distinctive learning environment providing quality teaching and equitable opportunities for all students to achieve.
