Warrnambool West Primary School was originally opened in 1966. It was exciting times. The classes were large as the enrolment was more than expected. 

In 1997, Warrnambool West Primary School successfully merged with Dennington Primary School. In 2003, the Dennington Primary School school grounds officially closed, all students began attending at the current school. 

In 2016, Warrnambool West Primary School celebrated 50 years of providing quality education for students and their families in Warrnambool and surrounding areas. At our 50th celebration, a few 'original' students recalled playing in gravel and dirt as the oval wasn't complete. One of their favourite lunchtime activities was collecting red back spiders!

Warrnambool West Primary School has had many changes over the years, but the most appropriate education and supportive environment is provided to all students and families. 

We look forward to the years ahead and to ‘Sailing Towards Success’.
