Caralee CS opened in January 2005 as a result of the amalgamation of Carawatha and Willagee Primary Schools. On the same site is the Fremantle Language Development Centre. When preparing for Caralee the planning committee looked at the existing aspects of the culture and ethos at the existing schools, then aspired to create a new school campus with its own culture and which also values learning, respect for others and inclusivity. The school also endeavours to serve the purpose of two schools, those being the Fremantle Language Development Centre and Caralee CS.
