Principal's Update
2025 Enrolments
Enrolments for 2025 are now open! Students that are new to a Victorian Government School can be enrolled through the online enrolment process. Please visit https://students.educationapps.vic.gov.au/s/ to register and submit an application. Paper enrolment forms are also available from the school office.
Every day is an open day at Cobram Primary School and we love to demonstrate our excellent teaching and learning! Please phone the office on 58721374 for a school tour.
Uniforms
As the weather is getting colder it is important that students are dressed warmly when coming to school. The weather has been around 1-2 degrees some mornings and many students have arrived at school in a polo shirt and shorts. Please ensure your child is wearing a jumper as students are not able to enter the classroom until 8:55am.
During the day a lot of students do remove their jumper as it becomes warmer. We ask that all jumpers are clearly named so that lost jumpers can be returned easily to students.
Road Safety
Lately, there have been a number of concerning incidents out the front of the school. It is very alarming to see parents with their children crossing the road between buses, in front of cars and without checking for traffic. Please assist us in teaching students about road safety so that everyone makes it home safely each day. Everyone crossing William Street must cross at the school crossing, staff are reminding students of this but we need the assistance of parents to ensure it is happening.

Pirate Day
Thank you to all our families that participated in Pirate Day! It was a fun to see so many students in costume and to also raise money for childhood brain cancer research.
Have a great week!
