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. 5148.01 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 1 2R 5148.01 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 1 2R Names Front Row L2R Michelle Gauci Miki ORegan Jessica James Jessika Bilanovic Tracey Coldrey Sarah Kennedy Caterina Viterale Jessica Smith Second Row L2R Vanessa Dano Rory Markovic Sarah Quinsee Jarrod Montague Jason Hamilton Anna Evangelista Aaron Gray Andrew Demicoli Back Row L2R Darren Cain Madelaine Burrows Dillion Hayward Rachel Jude Joseph Leggio Aaron Batty Absent Krystal Spiteri Mario James Teacher Mrs Patricia Porigneaux Principal Mr Alan Jones 5148.02 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 2 3H 5148.02 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 2 3H Names Front Row L2R Rachel Testa Hakan Beyit Bradley Dale Brodie Wightman Raja Shah Corey Pearson Brooke Elso Second Row L2R Samuel Sella Ashleigh Barnett Jacquiline Mayne Amanda Kennedy Kathleen Maguire Dale Bavage Raymond Gulan Back Row L2R Ryan Tishlet Troy Hearn Andrew Kinder Aaron Neumann Ross Wileman Sarah Caruana Absent Pamela Broadwood Teachers Mr Haren Mrs Farrugia Principal Mr Alan Jones 5148.03 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 3 4SW 5148.03 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 3 4SW Names Front Row L2R Shaun Wright Matthew Sultana Jessie Lyon Ilona Berecz Scott Kirby Sarah Demicoli Stephanie Theuma Lucian Harabor Phuc Ung Second Row L2R James Nardella Daniel Hall Matthew Gulan Jay Swift Ben Scicluna Ashleigh Vandenberg Matthew Kindred Michael Baker Kent Hunyh Back Row L2R Evelyn Cameron Alex Burrows Jarrod Heath Viorica Neascu Jackie Roberts Paul Harrip Belinda Pollard Lesley Gray Absent Beth Anh Nguyen Teachers Mrs J Sullivan Mrs T Woods Principal Mr Alan Jones 5148.04 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 4EW 5148.04 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 4EW Names Front Row L2R Jun Yang Rebecca Meilak Van Nguyen Kristy Butterfield Ryan Loft Mrisa Grima Candeece Brown Marlena Chajter Stephen Archer Second Row L2R Cristanto Evangelista Caylan Goring Joseph Scicluna Helena Lake Zorica Stanojevic Christina Brooks Michael Berecz Kyle Strinovic Absent Ian Spiteri Teachers Mrs A Erwood Mrs T Woods Principal Mr Alan Jones Back Row L2R 5148.05 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 5 6C 5148.05 - Albion State School 1995 Grade 5 6C Names Front Row L2R Trinh Ung Elizabeth Trinh Jenny Keane Kylie Skew Kim Duffy Kayte Whitlow Andrea Gonzalez Ngoc Nguyen Second Row L2R Jacob Savage Terry Kaminnyj Mark Dale Adam Souter Gregg Dennis Brent Davis Nicholas Pahos Tony Trajkovski Third Row L2R Luke McComb Maucauley Goring Tim Perry Ebony Batty Edin Karastanovic Ravinder Shah Stevie White Back Row L2R Jillian Allender Sara Christopoulos Jarema Bogdanowicz Melissa Jude Maria Brown Absent John Harmsworth Scotland Mayo Carlos James Teacher Mr Tom Cook Principal Mr Alan Jones 5148.06 - Albion State School 1995 Grade Prep 1F 5148.06 - Albion State School 1995 Grade Prep 1F Names Front Row L2R Jennifer Pucek John Clifton Bradley Rolfe Andy Moffitt Matthew Archer Steve Bernacki Michael Darby Jackson Ash Yu Second Row L2R Michael Trice Stacey Hamilton Adrian Wooding Larissa Barnett Tiffany Thomas Gavin Stone Katherine Ho Reno Ierafa Back Row L2R Thomas Foss Mathew Tiemes Doreen Roberts Troy Strinovic Matthew Baker Ana Maria Ast Daniel Harmsworth Richky Lyos Teacher Mrs Ann Fabbro Principal Mr Alan Jones 5148.07 - Albion State School 1995 Grade Prep 1H 5148.07 - Albion State School 1995 Grade Prep 1H Names Front Row L2R Aaron Trough Samantha Williams Matthew Gauci Yukun Liang Cong Le Robert Anderson Caitlin Tippet Joshua Neumann Second Row L2R Alarna Swift Celebi Uzun John Tanuska Tom Morgan Mathew Grima Alison Testa Back Row L2R Sara Kindred Priya Shah Kylie Harrip Dwayne Brown Jilliah Johnson Absent Lisa Broadwood Teachers Julie Hrovatin Betty Batty Principal Mr Alan Jones 5148.08 - Albion State School 1995 Staff 5148.08 - Albion State School 1995 Staff Names Front Row L2R Bogusia Goring Betty Batty Sue Rossa Alan Jones Jan Talbot Adrienne Erwood Pat Porigneaux Second Row L2R Rose Buttigieg Kellie Rozank Susan Carpenter Sandy Dennis Lorraine Farrugia Ann Fabbro Back Row L2R Joanne Sullivan Tom Cook Wayne Haren Teresa Woods albion state school, albion primary school, adelaide street, albion
