This commitment to our community and our overall system objective to reach 'high standards of student achievement; academic and social' are reflected through our priorities of literacy, numeracy and values education. Inclusivity is a key principal in our school planning and curriculum provision to enable each student to be challenged as a learner and maximise outcomes.

The school is active in the local community. Parents and caregivers are actively involved in the school through the School Council, P&C, Canteen, uniform shop and volunteers.  The East Maddington Primary School canteen is open daily and caters for students' nutritional needs following the traffic light canteen system.
