Description:
Fitzroy Community School was founded in 1976 by
Philip O'Carroll and Faye Berryman, and operates
in Brunswick Street North Fitzroy, in three
terrace houses (595-599), opposite the Edinburgh
Gardens.
As well as following a normal academic
curriculum, FCS provides many outings, camps,
concerts and other outdoor activities. The
school was founded to ensure that children
develop confidence and communication skills.
The roll is kept to about 55 children, so that
everybody knows everybody, and the school enjoys
a community spirit. There is a personal
atmosphere, rather than an institutional one.
The classes are small and the curriculum is
broad.
FCS is an independent, alternative primary
school. It has its own unique style of
operation. It has a relaxed atmosphere and good
outcomes at the same time. Children are keen on
learning and keen on coming to school. Some
years we have no turnover of families at all.
Prospective parents are welcome to come and have
a casual look through the school at almost any
time. Simply phone to make a mutually convenient
time.
If you like what you see, make an appointment
for a sit-down chat at which we can explain the
details to you.
