Bilingual Program Footscray Primary School

A bit of history  Officially started in 1997 and originally aimed to support mother tongue maintenance of the very large number of Vietnamese migrant students in the school.  Since 2005, the school adapted the PYP program and its inquiry-based learning.  The program continues to have an increase in the number of non-Vietnamese background students.
