School Policies
Victorian government schools have many policies to assist and guide operations as required by the Department of Education. Our policies can be found on our school website: https://buninyongps.vic.edu.au/key-documents/
We welcome feedback from families and members of our school community on ways we can further strengthen our policies, procedures and practices. If you have any suggestions, comments or questions, please contact narelle.sullivan@education.vic.gov.au.
