= School Profile =

Our school is situated in the City of Moreland, nine kilometres to the north of the City of Melbourne. Our multicultural school of approximately 160 children comprises around 19 nationalities from 22 language backgrounds. We welcome students from the immediate vicinity and other suburbs and have over 35 children of overseas students completing post graduate courses at the University of Melbourne. We have a School Family Occupation index of around .8 and around 70% of our students are from a language background other than English. We are the recipients of Building Education Revolution (BER) funding to refurbish our school and have chosen, in response to parent feedback, to utilize the funding to develop a Performing Arts Centre for School and Community use along with the development of 21st Century open learning spaces. Over the past Strategic Plan period our priorities have been English and Mathematics and we have had an emphasis on technology, physical fitness and health and the environment.
