Communication & Classrooms
Classrooms
The school currently has three classrooms: a grade Prep/1, a 2/3 and a 4/5/6. Specialist programs include Music, Physical Education, Art and the Mobile Area Resource Centre (MARC).
The school has a Business Manager who is located in the School Office four days per week.
Metung Primary School is the administration base for the MARC librarian. The MARC scheme provides library lessons and borrowing for several schools in the East Gippsland district.
Communication
The school also takes great pride in its communication with parents via our fortnightly newsletter, website, via text, uEducateUs and parent information afternoon and evenings.
Individual student school reports are distributed to parents and carers at the end of Term 2 and 4. Parent Teacher interviews are usually held in terms 3 and 4.
This communication is further enhanced by the high level of parent involvement in school programs and in social and fundraising activities. Great emphasis is placed upon all issues affecting the welfare of our students; including Department of Education and Training directives for new educational ideas, health and safety issues and other areas that may affect the wellbeing of staff and students. The School Council ensures that the principles of merit and equity operate within the school.
PARENT PAYMENTS
Under the Department of Education and Training’s Parent Payments Policy, Victorian government schools are required to provide transparent information to their school community on voluntary parent/carer contributions.
This document outlines the voluntary parent/carer contributions at our school.
