Welcome to Gladysdale Primary School. We are situated in the beautiful Yarra Valley between Yarra Junction and Powelltown. We have a rich history and strong sense of community. Gladysdale Primary School has been established since 1918 and recently celebrated its Centenary. Our school population is diverse with students travelling from Millgrove, Yarra Junction, Wesburn, Three Bridges and Powelltown.

Our school values are Respect, Resilience, Integrity and Teamwork and they underpin how we work together as a learning community. We strongly believe in creating a caring and supportive learning environment for all students so they feel secure whilst at school. We work towards developing and supporting all children to reach their full potential – academic, social, emotional and physical.

Gladysdale Primary School is a small enough to be personal and large enough to have great benefits. Our buildings and grounds are spacious with ample play areas.

Gladysdale Primary School is part of the Outer Yarra Valley network of schools and takes an active role in professional learning. The school has a strong partnership with neighbouring schools with the common goal of improving student wellbeing and student outcomes.

Parents are invited to become partners with teachers in developing a positive educational outcomes for their children. Parents are involved in supporting classroom programs, the development of facilities, maintenance of grounds and fundraising.

I look forward to getting to know you and your children and I hope your experience with Gladysdale Primary School is happy and productive.
