Education Week

Education Week at Miners Rest K-6

Now in its 77th year, Education Week aims to positively profile and celebrate the strengths and achievements of Victoria's government education sector.

Education Week 2021 will run from 23-29 May and the theme is 'Building Connections'. The theme celebrates the connections between schools and local communities and strengthens bonds with families and carers.

Education Week is an opportunity for all primary and secondary schools, higher education, and early childhood services to showcase how they are building connections with the community around them. 

During Education Week, the students will be working in small groups to create a diorama of an area of the new school. As well as being a fun cooperative activity that builds connections with students across a range of year levels, the finished products will form a colourful and artistic display in various areas of the new site next term.

As advertised in the newsletter calendar, on Monday May 31 students and staff warmly invite all parents, guardians, relatives and friends to visit your child’s classroom from 2.20-3.20 pm. This will not only strengthen the home school connection, but will be a great opportunity for the students to showcase the excellent work they have been doing at school. The completed dioramas will look amazing too!

We would love to see as many families as possible on the day as the children get such joy and sense of achievement showing off their learning. 

Due to COVID safe practices, if classrooms have large numbers attending, visitors may have to be staggered so that room capacity limits are adhered to. We thank you in advance for your understanding in this matter.
