**Location Profile**:
Dandenong South Primary School (DSPS) is located in the South-Eastern Victoria Region, thirty-nine kilometres from Melbourne. The school is bordered by residential, commercial and industrial zones. The school has a kindergarten onsite coordinated in partnership with the City of Greater Dandenong and Best Chance Child Family Care. Facilities include a state of the art gymnasium, music room, a performing arts space, award winning Learning and Discovery Centres, modernised classrooms, enviable school grounds, a double storey classroom building and a Community Hub.

The school is divided into five sub-schools; Foundation, Year 1, Year 2, Years 3 and 4 and Years 5 and 6. We pride ourselves on maintaining small class sizes along with a highly experienced teaching staff so that we can provide the best possible teaching and learning environment for our students. Dandenong South Primary School also invests in an array of student support programs in Mathematics, Reading, Writing, oral language and wellbeing. This helps in creating personalised pathways to success for all our students. The programs offer intervention as well as enrichment opportunities to students at each grade level. An Allied Health team consisting of a Psychologist, a Speech Pathologist and an Occupational Therapist also work with identified students across the school. Specialist areas include Indonesian as LOTE, visual arts, performing arts and physical education. Intensive swimming programs and visiting sports organisations provide coaching sessions that complement our Physical Education and Health curriculum.

The spacious playgrounds are well established with plenty of shade areas provided by established trees and shade sails over the junior and senior playground equipment as well as three large sandpits. We also have extensive soccer pitches, a football and cricket oval, netball court, basketball court, several decked outdoor spaces, a school garden, a covered bike shed, a sensory garden and a reclusive courtyard area where students have opportunities to engage in physical exercise and leisurely activities.

We are proud to have a diverse student cohort where majority of our students have a language background other than English. To meet the needs of the students who predominantly speak English as an additional language (EAL), the school offers a range of literacy intervention programs. These include first phase and second phase EAL programs, LEAP (Literacy Enhancement Assessment Program) oral language, Speech Therapy Assistants (STA), phonological awareness, and reading and writing programs. The school has a Play Based Learning approach through its Investigations program in Foundation to Year 2 classrooms. Inquiry Learning consolidates this approach in Years 3-6. We ensure each and every student is learning at a standard and in a manner that will maximise their chances of successful, sustained and enjoyable learning. Our NAPLAN results over the past five years have shown that students at our school usually perform better than their peers in similar schools, acknowledging the effective teaching and learning practices at the school. Through our continued focus on literacy and numeracy, we anticipate that this positive trend will continue.

Dandenong South Primary School offers a well-resourced before and after school program. Additionally, DSPS offers a variety of after school programs.

The school continues its relationship with a number of partnering organisations to provide a Community Hub, which offers playgroup, English language classes and other programs tailored to the needs of the local community. The Hub offers support to families by familiarising them with the school setting and builds relationships with school staff to provide a safe, supportive and accessible venue for a range of community services.

At Dandenong South Primary School, our vision is to provide students with a positive and engaging learning environment which will equip them with the knowledge, skills and social competencies they need for the future. We want our students to become respectful and responsible citizens who positively contribute to society.
