In very challenging times it has been great to know we belong to an extremely supportive and caring community. Teachers have embraced the challenge of moving to an online home learning format and have been provided with time to familiarise themselves with a range of different platforms to deliver this. I thank them for the extra work they have done to ensure we facilitate learning for all. They are an amazing group of educators.

We really appreciate the positive support and feedback from families and we even received some beautiful fruit to share. Thank you for your kindness and understanding. We appreciate that this is a very difficult time for many families and our thoughts are with those who are experiencing hardship.

Strong relationships built on care, have and always will be central to our school community. This will continue with families as we proceed to new learning pathways. Please communicate with staff if you require support, we will be available to help with this transition.

OSHC Director

It gives me pleasure to introduce our new OSHC Director, Dennis Shanahan. Dennis has had extensive experience working in OSHC over many years and we are very happy to have him join our team. 

Hi, My name is Dennis Shanahan and i am the new OSHC Director here at Coromandel Valley Primary School. I have spent the last year living in Queensland where i established a brand new OSHC service as an OSHC coordinator for 230 children. Prior to moving to Queensland i was the OSHC Director at Edwardstown Primary School where we had a well received program by the community. I am excited to be back in Adelaide with my 3 children who are all currently in highschool. I love to ride my bike and look foward to cycling in Adelaide again. I am a Hawthorn supporter in the AFL and cant wait for the season to start. I look foward to meeting all the families and to continue to run an enjoyable OSHC service that feels like an extension of home.
