The Department of Education has announced that three new primary schools are to open in Landsdale, Mandurah and West Swan (Dayton) for the 2023 school year.
The three schools are in addition to the Piara Waters Secondary College in Perth’s south, also opening in 2023.

The Madora Bay Primary School (planning name) in Mandurah and the West Swan (Dayton) Primary School (also planning name) will also be built for the 2023 school year.
All three primary schools will include general classrooms, an early childhood education block, library, covered assembly area with music, art room, administration and staff facilities, parking for staff and parents, and an oval.
The Department said construction on the schools was expected to begin in December next year.
Stage Two construction of Yarralinka Primary School in Southern River will also open in 2023, it said.
Premier, Mark McGowan (pictured) said the three new primary schools would provide outstanding facilities for local children while supporting jobs for local workers.
“Nothing is more important than giving young Western Australians a quality education, and families in Landsdale, Mandurah and West Swan will benefit from this fully-funded commitment,” Mr McGowan said.
Minister for Education and Training, Sue Ellery said she was thrilled to offer parents in some of Perth’s fast-growing areas modern new learning environments for their children.
