Learning Intervention and Extension Programs

We offer learning intervention and extension programs for our students as required. For extra support in reading, we run a well-known and researched one to one reading intervention program called, ‘Cracking the ABC Code’. This program is recommended by speech pathologists and all of our teachers have received comprehensive training in the program.

For students requiring extension, our multi-age groupings mean that they can work with peers of different ages based on their next point of learning. Eligible students can participate in the High-Ability program offered by the Department of Education in year 5/6. Our STEM program and opportunities such as the Australian Mathematics Competition and Marysville BookNest Writing Competition provide opportunities for students who excel, to challenge themselves and their learning.

Acknowledgement of Country

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.
