Chalcot Lodge Primary School was established in 1983 and is located in a quiet residential area of Endeavour Hills in the City of Casey.  Chalcot Lodge has certainly changed dramatically over the years. The school is very proud of its historical background.  The land was originally the ‘Chalcot Farm’.  The long row of oak and pine trees originally led from Heatherton Road to the stable.  There are still many of these oaks on the school grounds, and in honour of the school’s history, the oak leaf and acorns have been incorporated as part of the school’s logo.
