Being part of a community that fosters individualised learning and values every student as an individual is an absolute honour. What makes a school is the team of leadership, teachers and families coming together to celebrate each child’s success and support their learning journey.
Mooroolbark has high expectations for our students and teachers. In Junior School, we expect that 50% of our students place in the top 10% for academic performance in Australia, 75% in the top 20% in the country, and 90% in the top 30%. We believe that graduating students will have strong core academic skills, a broad analytical thinking ability, and operate in a rapidly changing world. We expect these results because we believe in every one of our students, we see each individual’s potential and foster our curriculum in such a way that it ignites a love for learning and improving one’s self.
At Mooroolbark, we use the motto that ‘Reach Your Full Potential’. Learning starts at an early age through flexible and creative programs in our Early Learning Centres and continues until our students graduate. Core literacy and numeracy skills are developed by explicit instruction in the Junior Years, which presents many meaningful learning opportunities that engage the child and their interests.
