Principal’s Welcome

Welcome to Ocean View P-12 College

We are a state government site located in Taperoo on the Le Fevre Peninsula with a Children’s Centre, R-12 school and a second campus in the heart of Port Adelaide, Harbor View, where Tailored Learning students attend to access more individualised learning opportunities.

Relationships are the basis of all we do at Ocean View College and the structure of our school with three sub-schools – primary, middle and senior years, allows us to know your child in a much smaller environment where we can make connections with them as individuals and with you as their family.

We have a school wide focus on restorative practices and we work to build strong relationships with, and amongst, our students to foster a sense of connection and belonging. We work with our students to repair their relationships with others when the need arises.

We provide a college community where every child and young person has a valued role and can achieve success by engaging in creative and supportive learning experiences through quality teaching in a positive learning environment.

Whilst the core focus of any school is teaching and learning, at Ocean View College, we take an additional approach of focusing on students as individuals by also supporting their wellbeing. To do this, we offer a variety of programs and resources including having a Wellbeing Leader in each of the three sub-schools, access to mental health providers and other specialised practitioners for students to access.

School life for our community is underpinned by our values of Respect, Responsibility and Resilience which are reinforced through our sub-schools in regular conversations with our students and more formally in pastoral care lessons, broader school events and assemblies.

Please contact us at the school on 8248 1422 if you’d like to know more. To make an enrolment enquiry or to make an appointment for a school tour please head to the enrolment section of our website: Ocean View College Enrolments

We look forward to welcoming you and your children to our school community and working together to support your child on a path of success towards their individual goals.
