As part of our International Baccalaureate Program we teach children the good attributes of being a learner.
Students learn about and then practise these attributes to ensure that they develop the skills to be life-long learners.

Last Friday the 4th of March, we held our Athletics Carnival at Dixon Field in Gisborne. All year levels from Foundation to Grade 6 attended, and the day was a huge success. The weather was good, and we were very lucky that the rain stayed away. All the students tried really hard in their events, and we were very proud of everyone's efforts and sportsmanship. The whole school had a lot of fun, and the results from our grade 3-6 students will be used to form the team for MMPS to compete in the District Athletics being held on Thursday 8th September. A big thank you goes out to all of the parents and carers who did a fantastic job helping out on the day. Well done on a great Athletics Carnival for 2022.
The Division Swimming Competition will be held next Wednesday 17th March at the Melton Waves Swimming Pool. Congratulations to the following students who have qualified for the event:
Olive 11yr Freestyle, Breaststroke
Emily M 12 yr Breaststroke
Charlie D 10 yr Breaststroke
We wish them the best of luck, and hope they enjoy the day.
Spring to it!
We know it’s hard to think about spring flowers when we’re still waiting for summer to arrive, but if you want your garden full of spring bulbs you need to order them now!
Welcome to our first fundraiser of the year, and this one is super easy to be a part of and spread the message far and wide to your friends and family (even those outside of Mount Macedon). Forty percent of all sales are donated to the school by Tesselaar, who is conducting the bulb sale on our behalf. So if you were going to order spring bulbs through a reputable seller then this is the way to do it and raise money for your local school at the same time. It’s all done online so no need for cash in envelopes or notes back to teachers, just head to www.bulbfundraiser.com.au/MOUNTMPS (it’s also super easy to send the link to family and friends). Get in quick, final orders will be taken until 9th April 2022, or until sold out.
Funds raised will go to supporting projects at the school. Please try and support this important fundraiser if you can.
Thanks,
The FOS Team
Just a quick note to remind parents if you are dropping your child late to school, please present via the school office and sign your child in as a late arrival. This really helps staff and teachers keep track of attendance, and helps avoid any disruption to the start of class. We appreciate your cooperation.
