Landsdale Primary School

Landsdale is a genuinely family-friendly northern suburb of Perth, sitting within the City of Wanneroo. It’s a mixed-use area with residential streets, local shops, and light industrial pockets, but the overall feel is calm and community-oriented. You’ll find parks, lakes, and walking trails woven through the neighbourhood, and the Landsdale Forum shopping centre covers everyday errands. With around 15,400 residents, it’s a settled, middle-income area where many families put down roots. The vibe is practical and welcoming—the kind of place where kids ride bikes to the park and neighbours stop for a chat. If you’re new to Australia, you’ll appreciate how safe and straightforward daily life feels here, with most amenities just a short drive away.

Landsdale Primary School has a wonderfully diverse student body—around 38 per cent of students speak English as an additional language or dialect, which enriches the classroom experience for everyone. The school follows the Australian Curriculum and offers a strong music program, including singing clubs, bucket drumming, and a senior choir. For Years 5 and 6, selected students can join the Instrumental Music School Services (IMSS) program, learning classical guitar, clarinet, trumpet, or brass and woodwind. It’s a school that clearly values both academic growth and creative expression, and the inclusive atmosphere makes it easier for new families to feel at home quickly.

If you’re juggling work and school runs, you’ll be pleased to know Landsdale Primary School runs an Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) program for students from kindy up to 12 years old. It operates Monday to Friday during term time and through the school holidays. During term, before-school care runs from 7:00–9:00 am, and after-school care runs from 2:45–6:00 pm (with a 2:00 pm start on Wednesdays). Holiday care runs from 7:00 am–6:00 pm. The service is provided by Early Years Learning and Development Pty Ltd, so you can count on a structured, supervised environment after the bell rings. The school office can confirm current before- and after-school care arrangements.

After a long day, you’ll find plenty of easy dinner options nearby. Rimondo’s Landsdale on The Broadview is a popular pizza takeaway and delivery spot with a solid 4.4-star rating—perfect for Friday night. For something a bit different, Munch & Bun on Kalinga Way offers Italian and Australian takeaway with pickup or delivery. Craving Vietnamese? Head to Viet Hong in nearby Malaga for pho and noodle dishes, available for dine-in, takeaway, or delivery. And if you’re after specialty ingredients, Taj Mahal Spice on Suffolk Street is an Indian grocery shop that stocks everything you need for a home-cooked curry. Between takeaway nights and home cooking, you’ll never be short of ideas.

If your child needs extra academic support, Success Tutoring has a branch on Rangeview Road in Landsdale, offering in-person and online tutoring focused on the WA curriculum, including maths and English. There are also private tutors listed through HighSchoolTutors.com.au, some with high ATAR results for secondary subjects. On the commute front, Transperth buses serve the area—routes 450 and 452 connect Ballajura Station to Warwick and Whitfords Stations respectively, linking you to the wider rail network that radiates from Perth Station.
