Blanchetown Primary is a small Riverland school located 140 kilometres from Adelaide, home of Lock One. Set on picturesque grounds, our students are supported to be active learners who ask questions, take risks and focus on learning goals. Our school has three key values- Resilient, Responsible and Respectful. Students are empowered to use these values daily.

We have a comprehensive data schedule that helps inform individual learning goals. A sequential and intensive phonics program is utilised at our school. We are well resourced with decodable readers and students have 1:1 devices, iPads in R-2 and laptops in Yr 3-6.

Our R-2 class is called our Little Learners and our Year 3-6s is called The Lightning Bolts.
Our staff are dedicated and committed to our families.

We welcome you for a Principal’s Tour by phoning 85 405 041 for a booking.

Can I just say we weren't quite sure what to expect when we enrolled piper 2 years ago coming from a big school in adelaide but we have been blown away by how it turned out. Ashlee the job you do along with mrs billet is phenomenal with everything you do for the kids and the school. All of the teachers and staff do a phenomenal job. Thanks to all the students and families for welcoming piper and us it has been fantastic. You will all be missed and thanks again for being so great to piper. You have an amazing school and it's a credit to all staff, students and families

Today, the Year 3-6 class, along with Mrs. Bolt, Mrs. Schwartzkopff, and Lula & Sparkle (our Kindness Elves), had a magical time spreading Christmas cheer at the Community Library!

The students walked down to decorate the Book Swap Fridge, transforming it into a festive masterpiece ready for the holiday season. As an added touch of kindness, they also created beautiful Christmas-themed bookmarks for people to take when swapping a book.

What a wonderful way to share creativity, generosity, and holiday joy with our community! Thank you to everyone who made this special activity possible! 🎄📚✨
