What is your child naturally good at? Maths? Writing? Sports? Caring for their friends? We all have talents that help us stand out and succeed. So, doesn't it make sense for schools to recognise and utilise students' talents rather than overly focussing on their deficits?
Construction is under way on our modernisation project to give students better learning opportunities by upgrading classrooms.
We would like to extend a very warm welcome back to our existing and new Yarra families! We hope that you have had a wonderful summer break and are looking forward to an exciting year of learning with your children!
Yarra Primary has been recognised as an Influence School by the Department of Education.
The goals of Visible Wellbeing are to support students and staff to see, hear and feel wellbeing. Developing on from this, students and staff are provided with lessons and practices to build and strengthen their own and others' wellbeing.
Yarra Primary School teachers Yasmin, Rachel and Harriet participated in the Teacher Excellence Program in 2022 and 2023. In 2024, we are so proud that Eve has been successful in achieving a place in this program for high-performing teachers.
