Welcome

We are very proud that you will be sharing the unique experience of being part of Clunes Primary School. We are an extremely well resourced school and our facilities are outstanding, allowing all students the opportunity to access learning opportunities that ensure they reach their potential.

You are a significant part of your child's education and your support will make a positive difference. You can assist in this role by:

• Ensuring that your child attends school every day
• Ensuring that your child has adequate sleep and nutrition and is organised for school
• Reading to/with your child regularly
• Setting aside quality time each day to talk to your child about school, friends, activities etc
• Encouraging, praising and supporting your child's learning
• Demonstrating your genuine interest in his/her school work and learning including homework
• Keeping in contact with your child's teacher and the school
• Helping out in your child's classroom if possible

At Clunes Primary School, we consider those values such as good manners, caring behaviour and pride in our school and ourselves as integral to our success. We embrace the theory and practice of You Can Do It! Education, actively promoting the five foundations including:

• Confidence
• Persistence
• Organisation
• Getting Along
• Emotional Resilience

We encourage you to be involved in our school. We believe that education is a partnership between the home and the school, and we greatly value parent involvement as fully as time and commitments allow.

Your support will assist us to provide the very best education possible for our students, in a safe, secure and happy environment. Once again, a very warm welcome to Clunes Primary School. You are an important member of this school and I look forward to your involvement in our school. Please do not hesitate to contact the school for further information.
