Welcome to Peranbin Primary College
Welcome to the Peranbin Primary College website. We hope these pages will give you a clear idea of this unique school and what it offers the children who learn and thrive across its four campuses. Each campus of Peranbin is a Child Safe School, providing a learning environment which supports and includes all children. Our small class sizes provide students with individual attention and rich learning experiences differentiated to meet student needs.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY
We acknowledge the traditional owners of the lands on which our campuses sit. Strathbogie and Swanpool are on Taungurung country. Baddaginnie and Violet Town are on Yorta Yorta country.
We recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and culture. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.
SCHOOL VALUES
Our school values are: Respect, Integrity, High Expectations and Responsibility
These values extend to all staff, students and parents.
In 2019 we reviewed and updated our Student Engagement and Wellbeing approaches across the college. This was a significant undertaking which took 9 months of consultation and discussion with students, staff, School Council and families. It was important to get this right, and in 2020 we have a solid foundation to build on.
Keep an eye on our communications via Facebook, the newsletter and SchoolStream for your opportunity to have a say in how your students are supported at school.
