The current school, Albion Primary School, No 4265 opened in 1926. It was built on a site once owned by John Fitzgerald (1850s). The land was later acquired by H. V. McKay who had transferred his Sunshine Harvester Works to the area in 1905 - 7. In 1920, the Albion railway station was moved nearer Ballarat Road at the request of Mr McKay. More people came to live in the area including soldier settlers.Albion Primary School's mission is to 'Aim High' in all we do so that our students grow to be socially capable, reach their full academic potential and become caring, respectful community minded people. Albion Primary School is located in a residential area in Albion, a small pocket of the local government area of Brimbank, approximately 10 kilometres west of Melbourne and was established in 1926. Our current enrolment is 199 students. We have a rich cultural diversity amongst our school community. The school is set around a courtyard with spacious playing areas including a grassed oval, running track, games courts, an adventure playground, sand pit, jumping pits, shady courtyard and garden areas, a vegetable garden and fruit tree orchard. As well as classroom groups, we have our learning teams, student house groups (siblings are allocated to the same house) and a Junior School Council. The school has four main buildings. All classrooms have air conditioning and interactive screens. Block A houses classrooms, staff areas and the administration offices. Our newest building has classrooms and some small group/office spaces. Block B includes our library, canteen and a multi-purpose room used for indoor physical education, Perceptual Motor Program, drama, visiting performers, and community activities. Block C houses classrooms and specialist rooms. We expect and receive the best from our students in terms of their learning and behaviour. The school’s dedicated and effective staff is strongly committed to helping students achieve personal, behavioural, social and academic success. In terms of learning, the highest priority is placed on the work in English and Mathematics. We also have a range of specialist and extra-curricular programs that we provide. Our specialist teacher-librarian is involved in reading extension programs that support development in literacy. All children are able to develop their artistic abilities through visual arts and music program. Our music program is supported by the Australian Children's Music Foundation. A specialist Physical Education teacher provides lessons for all children as well as the opportunity for students to participate in organised lunch time sporting competitions between the house groups. Auslan is the additional language all students learn at Albion. All children participate in a student wellbeing program that focuses on developing strong connections and a sense of belonging within the school. Our school student leaders participate in programs that help develop their leadership skills. 5132.01 - Albion State School 1979 Grade 1 2S 5132.02 - Albion State School 1979 Grade 1B 5132.03 - Albion State School 1979 Grade 2F 5132.04 - Albion State School 1979 Grade 3 4L 5132.04 - Albion State School 1979 Grade 3 4L Names Back Row Unknown Peter Hall Matthew Phillips Unknown Unknown Craig Kirby Second Row L2R Unknown Unknown Unknown Unknown Unknown Unknown Unknown Unknown Greg Wilson Unknown Third Row L2R Unknown Unknown Unknown Unknown Kim Heaviside Unknown Unknown Unknown Unknown Front Row L2R Unknown Shane Broughton Jean Pincott Unknown Unknown Unknown Unknown Unknown Unknown Unknown 5132.05 - Albion State School 1979 Grade 3D 5132.06 - Albion State School 1979 Grade 4D 5132.06 - Albion State School 1979 Grade 4D Names Back Row L2R Andrew Vantnell Unknown Darren White James Graham Mario Betozel Mark Gowans Second Row L2R Peter Young Chris Brown Unknown Unknown Steve Purrows Micheal Suobil Graham Anderson Jimmy Third Row L2R Karen Briggs Janine Humpries Sharon Carter Julie Johnson Lee Causon Annette Hartwell Pauline Shaw Astrid Schultz Front Row L2R Unknown Darren Williams Julie Gouards Michelle Grieg Linda Hyett Jody Randles Unknown Sharon Bodie Shane Long 5132.07 - Albion State School 1979 Grade 5 6B 5132.08 - Albion State School 1979 Grade 5T 5132.08 - Albion State School 1979 Grade 5T Names Back Row L2R Diane Rampersthammer Sharon Farugia Debra Bristow Julie Cleland Jennetee Spiteri Jenny Miller Donna Vasallo Michelle Pincott Alison Wilson Karen Mills Second Row L2R Ann Borg Julie Pots Susanne Phillips Valya JUchima Mrs Temby Marie Attard Lisa Talbot Camille Hatzegorgio Susan Clapham Third Row L24 Gary James Mark Kennedy Glenn Parry Colin Dowdy Gordon Rae Colin Phillips Dean Chambers David Sultana Front Row L2R Raymond Blanco Darren Spiteri Bruce Marchment Matthew Enever Stuart McKay Scott Hills Loukas Koropolous 5132.09 - Albion State School 1979 Grade 6C 5132.10 - Albion State School 1979 Grade Prep C 5132.11 - Albion State School 1979 Grade Prep S 5132.12 - Albion State School 1979 Staff 5132.12 - Albion State School 1979 Staff Names Back Row L2R Anne Lawson Patricia Durose Jim Carlin Barbera Sosnowski Mewgan Glavici Second Row L2R Paul Shaw Lorna Stainer Bill Cummins Clancy Peter OBrien Elaine james Jenny Temby Front Row L2R Kerrie Ferguson Jenny Oyilvie Marlene de Lorenzo Elizabeth Borezynski Aldona Brown Absent Sue Scott Wilma Fielding albion state school, albion primary school, adelaide street, albion
