Did you know?
That Millen Primary School first opened its doors in 1956 with just 6 teachers and 248 students? Today, the school community has grown to over 500 students — but the heart of Millen remains the same: learning together. 💙
Built during the post-war boom in East Victoria Park, Millen Primary became an important part of the growing “Millen Estate” community, welcoming generations of local families through its gates over the past 70 years. Many parents, grandparents — and even great-grandparents — of current students once sat in the very same classrooms!
Some fun facts from Millen’s history:
✨ The school was founded in 1956
✨ It originally served the rapidly growing post-war housing estates in the area
✨ Millen’s values today are Respect, Responsibility, Resilience and Excellence
✨ The school community proudly celebrates its rich cultural diversity
✨ Over the decades, Millen has evolved from a small local school into a vibrant modern learning community while keeping its strong community spirit alive
As we celebrate Millen’s 70th Fete, we celebrate not just the school buildings — but the friendships, memories, teachers, families and stories that have made Millen so special across seven decades.
We’d love to hear your Millen memories! What year did you attend? Do you have any old photos or favourite stories to share?
