Colac Primary School has a long history of commitment to the provision of high quality education for all students in a caring, positive and stimulating environment.
The school strives to ensure our students:

• are extended to their potential by encouraging, recognising and rewarding achievement and effort
• are responsible and caring community members

Colac P.S. is located on Murray Street East in the city of Colac.  It was the city’s first school however the original building was destroyed by fire in 1964.  Our school buildings have been extensively  refurbished during 2006.

We now have:

• 4 new classrooms and internal toilets for prep to 2 children;
• A new general office with access from Lyons Street;
• A refurbished art room, library and staff room;
• Refurbished larger classrooms for 3 to 6 students with withdrawal areas and staff offices;
• New toilets for year 3-6 students;
• A new 2 room portable classroom;
• New basketball court and staff carpark.

The school has a large Activity Centre and canteen, which facilitate many activities.
Our school grounds and play areas are being re-developed to complement the new buildings.  New higher fencing is being installed and two playgrounds will soon be built.
