North Melbourne Primary School is one of the few schools close to the CBD. The original school was established in 1874. It backs onto Flemington Road, the boundary between North Melbourne and Parkville. The Royal Children's, the Women's and Royal Melbourne Hospitals are located nearby. The school has easy access to the facilities and space of Royal Park.

To cater for significant enrolment growth over the coming years, an innovative new vertical campus for North Melbourne Primary School opened in 2023. The Molesworth Street campus caters for P-2 (Junior Campus), while the current Errol Street Campus caters for Years 3-6 (Senior Campus). The two campuses work collaboratively with students having the opportunity to visit each site for enhanced learning opportunities.

The student community of 800+ students reflect the cultural diversity of the surrounding neighbourhood, including North and West Melbourne, Parkville, and the CBD. There are approximately 45 different nationalities represented across the school community.

The school has a dynamic leadership team consisting of a Principal; Assistant Principals; and Literacy, Numeracy and Technology Learning Specialists, and Wellbeing Leading Teachers. This model is designed to provide stability and structure across both campuses.

The school is divided into eight Professional Learning Teams, seven of them teaching from Prep to Year 6; each team working collaboratively to provide a curriculum that is based on a solid foundation of literacy and numeracy. The Specialist Team delivers comprehensive specialist programs in Visual and Performing Arts (Music and Drama), Physical Education and Science.

The Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden program provides students with experiences in planting, harvesting and cooking healthy meals with much of the produce coming from our vegetable garden.
