Our school grounds are well utilised by sporting and community groups and this community use has continued since the inception of our Independent Public School status. We have continued to improve our grounds and buildings to attract and retain groups and we have a wide range of community users from puppy training to yoga and footy and netball training. In the past two years our Coding and Scratch clubs have joined the list of community groups using our facilities. Parents with technology expertise have joined with teachers from our school to run these very popular groups twice per week before school. We also host a well subscribed chess club and a before school tennis program both of which are popular not only with East Fremantle Primary School students but students from other surrounding schools also.
