Welcome to Ainslie School

As one of Canberra’s oldest schools, Ainslie has acquired the rich traditions and sense of purpose that has endeared it to a succession of children, parents and staff.

The opening of Ainslie School in 1927 was the first official act of the Prime Minister, Stanley Bruce, on his arrival in the newly established National Capital.

Ainslie has always been a very happy school with a strong sense of community, making it a focal point within the surrounding suburbs. The involvement of parents and the community is highly valued at Ainslie and from its inception has been one of the most distinctive aspects of the school.

You are especially invited to visit the school, to meet the staff and to feel as much a part of Ainslie as those families who are in their first, second or third generation at the school.

If you are enrolling at Ainslie School, we look forward to your long association with us. If you would just like to visit our school, we are more than happy to make a time to show you around and answer any of your questions. 

2008 marks the beginning of the official amalgamation of ACT Preschools with their local primary school.  We are delighted to have Ainslie Baker Gardens and Reid Preschools join us to make Ainslie School a P to 6 school.
