Location
What people get wrong
100 Geelong Road, corner Barkly. Not Footscray City Primary on Hyde Street. Catchments change. Use Find My School, not a rental advert. Office 8:30am-4:00pm. We last walked this on 2026-09-25. Hours move with the week. Checking the shopfront keeps the night easy.
What does Footscray Primary School do?
Footscray Primary School teaches Foundation to Year 6 as a Designated Bilingual Program school delivering the Victorian curriculum in English and Italian on the Geelong and Barkly corner.
House contact still prints office 8:30am-4:00pm and school 9:00am-3:30pm. Phone (03) 9687 1910. Email footscray.ps@education.vic.gov.au. Site footscrayps.vic.edu.au. Ask the office what year levels actually run immersion this term. Out of school hours care, uniform and canteen sit on the same site.
This is not Footscray City Primary at 10 Hyde Street. This is not Eden Academy at 282-288 Geelong Road, 3012, long-day childcare. This is not the hospital ED on Geelong Road. The Footscray Learning Precinct is a partnership, not a second address.
Who should come here?
Come here if Find My School or an enrolment letter names Footscray Primary School No. 253 at Geelong Road and Barkly.
Absence is Compass or the office line. Meet the Teacher and parent conferences sit on the house calendar. Do not hold the 9am line for a chat. Catchments change. Use Find My School, not this page and not a real-estate listing, before you sign a lease.
If you wanted Hyde Street, that is City Primary. If you wanted 3012 childcare, Eden Academy. If you wanted VU Park, that is 70-104 Ballarat Road. Confirm Foundation places with the office, not a Facebook group.

Term calendars and curriculum days move. Last-day early finishes are printed on that card. Do not invent Saturday school. Public holidays and term breaks shut the classrooms.

Which door and how to park
Match 100 Geelong Road at the Barkly corner. Hospital traffic on Geelong Road is the other queue. The mailing suburb is 3012. The gate is 3011.
The 82 tram and the 406 bus serve this edge on PTV cards. Footscray station is a longer walk than Middle Footscray if you already ride that line. After dark this is a school gate, not a reason to linger.
A child left in the yard at 8:40 is outside the 8:50 supervision the handbook printed. After 3:40 the yard is not a park. OSHC is the leftover sitting if you booked it. Old pin 2 Geelong Road is leftover. Stand on the Barkly corner.
If you need a different door
If you wanted City Primary, turn to Hyde Street and the park. If you wanted the high school, read the campus name on that letter. If you wanted the hospital, ED is 20 Geelong Road. If you wanted Eden Academy, 282-288 Geelong Road in 3012.
