This is our simple but powerful motto that drives everything we do at our school. Enter our school and you will sense our strong community spirit and experience the friendly, caring, and welcoming nature of our staff, students and parents. The abundance of trees, our natural bush borders with extensive nature play areas, including the occasional visit by a curious kangaroo or two gives Dunsborough Primary a unique 'rural' feel, but with all the trimmings of a modern city school. Explore more and you will see amazing artwork on display, hear students playing a range of musical instruments and witness the whole school engaging enthusiastically in regular fitness and sporting activities.
Along with our excellent staff, it is our wonderful students who make our school such a great place. They take care of each other, show respect for themselves and others, accept differences and strive to be the best they can.
