So many yummy treats! The school community has done an amazing job 👏

Today, was Wear Orange Wednesday to give thanks to the selfless SES volunteers.

We were lucky to have the local Marysville SES visit us. We loved seeing the truck and learning about all they do.

A big thank you to the SES volunteers for giving their time to help those in need!

Volunteers Needed This Weekend!

Our school is running a fundraising stall at the Murrindindi Fibre Festival and we still need helping hands — especially for Saturday (we currently have no volunteers 😬) and a few extra for Sunday.

Can you spare a few hours?

🕗 Shifts are:
• 8:00am – 11:00am
• 11:00am – 1:30pm
• 1:30pm – 4:00pm

You don’t have to do the full shift — at this stage any time you can give is so appreciated and would make a huge difference!

Please comment below or message us if you can help — and share this post to spread the word!

Let’s make this weekend a success for our kids and school 💛
Thank you!

Values

Buxton Primary School’s values are kindness, fairness and growth:

  • We strive for equity and fairness in how we treat each other and understand that our attitudes and behaviours have an impact on the people around us.
  • We model and demonstrate kindness and take every opportunity to help others that may be in need.
  • We strive for growth, which means identifying our starting points in our learning, trying our hardest and celebrating our progress.

We acknowledge the Taungurung people as the first peoples of Buxton and the surrounding areas. The Taungurung have been custodians and caretakers of the land, animals and waters for many thousands of years and continue to perform age-old ceremonies of celebration, initiation and renewal. We also recognise other Indigenous peoples living and working in the Buxton area.

Resilience, Rights and Respectful Relationships

In response to the Royal Commission into Family Violence, Buxton Primary School is committed to promoting and embedding respectful relationships and gender equality into our school’s curriculum, ethos, vision and values. In our school, the focus is on treating everyone with respect and dignity, developing personal, social and emotional skills and contributing to early intervention through education.
