The school crest
The school logo depicts three closely growing flowering plants enclosed in a
pentagon. The light blue background signifies the purity and innocence of
children while the grey signifies the experience and maturity the children will
gain while in West View Primary School. The five sides of the pentagon
symbolise the continuous development of the children morally, cognitively,
physically, socially and aesthetically.
The flowering plants forming the letters 'W' and 'V' represent the zest,
exuberance and growth that pupils experience while in West View Primary
School and the closeness of the plants indicate the friendship and trust
among pupils, teachers and the school community.

Unity by Cleo V. Swarat
I dreamed I stood in a studio
And watched two sculptors there,
The clay they used was a young child’s mind
And they fashioned it with care.
One was a teacher
the tools she used were books and music and art;
One was a parent
With a guiding hand and gentle loving heart.
And when at last their work was done,
They were proud of what they had wrought.
For the things they had worked into the child
Could never be sold or bought!
And each agreed she would have failed
if she had worked alone.
For behind the parent stood the school,
and behind the teacher stood the home!
Thank
you!
