Welcome to our website. I am sure it will inform you fully about our wonderful school.
We are a small school.
We are a quiet school.
We are a school of high expectations.
Westhaven School is a unique learning environment for children and young people who experience complex barriers to learning for a range of reasons.
In order that we maintain our respected status in the community, the whole school community works together in the ‘Westhaven Way’. This is the golden thread that runs through every school day. The Westhaven Way is based on our core values:
I am extremely proud of the whole school community. Our parents and carers work with us to support their children on their own personal learning journey.
Our staff are all leaders and maintain high standards and expectations. They are a powerful team of people with success for our learners at the core of all their work.
And, of course, our learners, who represent the school and maintain fantastic outcomes.
A learner at the end of their education in our school has expectations of success in the future and is a resilient person who is ready to take their place in society.

Excellent job – well done.

Well done everyone – another fantastic performance. So great to see Matthew taking part.
Very well organised. (Middle School Christmas play 2019)
An amazing effort which showed through in the confidence and performance of all the children. We very much enjoyed it and just would have loved Ned to have the confidence to participate.
Fantastic! Really good performance, all the kids were amazing – they had great acting skills and great dancing. Would love to see more drama throughout the year as it was so nice to see the kids enjoy it and be so confident.
Wow, what an amazing Nativity for Lower School – seeing all the staff working so hard to ensure that every child was happy and comfortable in what they were doing. With thought put in to provide a DVD for those who couldn’t attend – amazing. So pleased to have made the right decision in moving Lillie there.
So I’ve just been to see the Nativity production at Westhaven. I didn’t get the chance to fill out the feedback form, but I did want to say WOW! The production was great 🙂 all of the children were amazing! Lana-Rae’s confidence has really soared since being at Westhaven! I’m so thankful she is in a school that really does care and support her with her struggles; no matter what they are it’s never too much and the staff really do take their time to make sure she’s happy and feels secure. Her reading has come on so well and she’s learned to make and maintain friendships. It’s so nice to see her happy and enjoying education! So to all the staff … thank you so much for everything you do at Westhaven to make our children feel supported and included.
Just that you are all fantastic! A beautiful performance and lovely that the children got to put their personalities into it. Well done!
Keep being brilliant.
You all know how I feel about the whole team and the amazing work that you do. 100% love, effort and care at all times. Happy Christmas, enjoy your break.
Keep doing what you do best.

Thank you for your hard work and dedication and making it possible for Freyja to be part of a production. First year she has ever attended a whole nativity.
Thank you – it was the first time we saw Oliver enjoying taking part in a performance. He is usually so anxious. Just the right length.
Fantastic show – the kids were brilliant.
Keep up the fantastic work.
Thank you so much to all the staff – fantastic show! Happy Christmas. Doing the DVD is a great idea too. Continue with the fab work you are doing!
Collectively all the staff were amazing, they do an amazing job here and you can see this with how happy each child is at Westhaven. Thank you to all the staff for a wonderful 2019.
