Principal's Report

We, at Miners Rest Primary School, would like to acknowledge the Wadawurrung people of the Kulin Nation.
We pay our respects and thank the Wadawurrung people. May we share your land. We promise to look after it, as well as the animals and people too.
Miners Rest Primary School Transition Day
On Friday, December 12, Miners Rest Primary School will host our very own transition morning, replicating National Transition Day. This day will not include 2026 Foundation students, but all other students (current 2025, F-5 students) will spend time with their teacher for next year where possible.
Year 6 Graduation
Congratulations to our Year Six students in our graduating class of 2025! The students will celebrate together with a formal ceremony at school, next Monday 15th December. We will share the scholarship winners at our Presentation Night, Wednesday 17th December.
Presentation Evening
Our Presentation Evening is next Wednesday 17th December. From 5:00pm, families are welcome to picnic on the Medwell Oval (weather permitting). Following picnic time, please join the staff, and official guests, in the formal part of the Presentation Evening, including class carols, from 6:00pm.
Christmas Carry-on
It certainly is going to be feeling a lot like Christmas next Thursday 18th December when we enjoy a bit of Christmas Carry-on with the F-2 students on the Medwell Oval. Families are warmly invited to join us. There will be lots of Christmas fun to be had by all - see you there!
We look forward to celebrating with our students and our families as we work towards the end of 2025.
