About our school
Annunciation is situated in Nolan Ave. – a quiet location off Millers Road between the Westgate freeway and Geelong road.
Annunciation School was established in the mid-1960s to provide a second school in the Kingsville Parish. The early school catered for up to 200 students, many of the children attending from the migrant hostel on Millers Rd. The hostel was closed in the early 1970s. The Josephite Nuns administered the school up until 1980. The school now has a diverse population with over fifteen nationalities represented among our families.
We have dedicated, caring staff who work hard to provide a quality curriculum.
