Principal Message

Welcome to Peranbin Primary College. Established in 1994, Peranbin was formed through the community-driven amalgamation of five rural schools. Today we have campuses in Baddaginnie, Strathbogie and Violet Town. This union brought together these small communities and continues to reflect the strong rural identity of the area.

Peranbin PC operates as a multi-campus school, offering the intimate setting and strong relationships typical of small rural schools, while providing the resources, opportunities and professional collaboration associated with a larger school. The school is committed to unifying these three and fostering a strong sense of belonging for students, staff and families. Our shared vision is captured in our motto "Sharing the Future".

Our families tell me that they appreciate the fact that:

• we have small classes
• the teachers know the children extremely well
• students get together for whole college events (Cross Country Run, Athletics, School Camps, excursions and incursions)
• our teachers are experience but also willing to learn and grow
• we offer the same range of curriculum programs as a larger school
• we employ education support staff at every campus to work in each classroom
• we use SWPBS to create a positive learning environment
• we are inclusive - we welcome all students, and know that all students can learn with the right supports in place.
• we have a strong wellbeing team to support students
• our staff team is approachable

We welcome all families and students and aspire to make the learning journey an enjoyable and successful one. Our school values were renewed in 2024 and are as follows:

We CARE about school

We SUPPORT each other

We TRY our best

At Peranbin we strive to build strong and positive partnerships with families so all of the students can achieve success. We are human beings who care deeply about teaching and learning, and truly want the best for each child. We all look forward to working with you to achieve success for your children.

As the principal of a multicampus school, I share my time across the campuses. You can get in touch with me to make arrangements to meet or speak over the phone by contacting the Violet Town campus on 0357981431, via mobile on 0437226693 or email peranbin.pc@education.vic.gov.au
