BYOD Ipad Program 2025
Each year we partner with Edunet to provide an alternative option for purchasing an Ipad for students. There is no requirement to use the Edunet Parent portal but they do offer payment plans and insurance for devices. They are also able to give delivery timelines, which can be helpful.
Our parent information session will be held on Thursday 7th November at 7:30pm via Zoom for parents of 2025 Year 3 students. A link will be sent out to all Grade 2 parents next term.
The portal is available for all families with the aim in supporting our Year 2 families as their children move into Year 3.
Log in details and information for parents can be found below

Your plans for 2025
Our planning for 2025 is well under way and a major part of this planning relies on student numbers and knowing who will be returning to MPRPS for the 2025 school year. Please notify our Administration team if your intentions are not to return in 2025.
Specialist Learning Programs
As a part of the Framework for Improving Student Outcomes, we regularly evaluate our learning programs to suit the needs of our students and our community. As such, we are seeing feedback on our Language Other Than English (LOTE) instruction. Our Indonesian cultural and language program has been expertly provided by Bu Marissa Mundy for many years. Looking to the future, we want to seek some feedback on what language may serve our diverse and growing community best. Please take a moment to fill out this survey before the end of term on Friday September 20:
