Beaumaris Primary School is located in Ocean Reef, a suburban coastal estate, some 30 kilometres north of Perth. Beaumaris is a relatively affluent area, with a socially mobile population that includes many immigrants from the UK and South Africa who have reinvested their wealth for a preferred lifestyle by the sea. The community supports several local schools including government and non-government sectors. Parents are generally well off trades people, business people and workers. Most families participate in activities that promote positive outcomes for their children.
