Student Attitude to School Survey 2026

Earlier this year, our Year 4 to Year 6 students completed the on-line Student Attitude to School survey.

The Student Attitude to School Survey asks students to respond to questions in the domains of:

Effective Teacher Practice
Emotional and Relational Engagement
Individual Social and Emotional Wellbeing
Learner Characteristics and Dispositions
Not Experiencing Bullying
Not Experiencing Racism
Physical and Mental Health
School Safety
Social Engagement
Teacher – Student Relations

Our students positive responses were above results in every domain when compared to our

Similar schools like ours across the State
Our local network of schools
All schools in Victoria

This is a truly remarkable achievement!

This indicates our students are really happy to come to school, they understand attendance is important, they have friends at school and feel they belong and are accepted, they are challenged, motivated, have a voice and enjoy their learning, they feel safe, the school manages bullying well, their perception of their physical health is good, they are resilient and they can self regulate.

Students arriving at School too Early!

Just a reminder that students are only supervised in the school grounds in the morning from 8.45am onwards. Students are not expected to be at school before this time.

Our Before School program, TheirCare, is available every day, Monday to Friday, for parents who have other commitments and require their child to be supervised between 7.00am and 8.45am. TheirCare provides supervision of students, arranges breakfast if required and organises activities for students prior to school starting. Costs for student places in TheirCare are subsidised depending upon family income. Please contact TheirCare on 0438 975 813

Italian Day

What a successful day this was!! There were many fabulous dress up outfits worn by both students and staff for the celebration.

The Italian puppet show was a highlight as well as the delicious ice cream. Other activities included Art and Craft and Mask Making, Pasta Art/Jewellery/Soccer/Bocce and a disco.

Thank you to Signora Schembri for leading the organisation for the day, to all the teachers who ran the rotational activities and to the parents who helped deliver the ice creams to classrooms.
