TSS has changed our daughter’s life, outlook on life and how she feels about going to school.
We have never had a child feel excited to go to school after the school holidays, until now. Besides the fact that she is attending school, having productive days and learning, she is happy, content, confident and navigating her way through adolescence in such a positive way and a big reason is because she feels heard and supported at TSS! She travels for 3 hours to and back from school and never complains about it.
Thank you to the unbelievable staff & the program at TSS for giving her the many opportunities to shine bright like the star she is.

History Of The Studio School Location
The Studio School students enjoy the proximity of the campus to the vibrant heart of Fremantle which is ideally located for external opportunities, excursions, incursions and community projects. The Studio School program revolves around instruction in the classroom spaces and collaborative and creative work in the co-working spaces. This is very similar to many contemporary learning spaces in schools.
The central area of TSS is the co-working space which includes precincts. Around this central workspace there are several meeting spaces in which students engage in explicit instruction in groups and/or individually, as well as workstations for focused individual work and online learning.
