About the school.
Established in 1910, Mount Evelyn Primary School has a long and very proud history of educating children of families living in the local area. Situated on the corner of Monbulk Road and Clegg Road, the school attracts families from within our school zone and those commuting daily from the Yarra Valley. The school, recently modernised throughout, consists of 19 classrooms, specialist areas including the visual arts room, a science area, a LOTE space, a performing arts hub and library. The school also boasts a large gym, a community building and attractive outdoor areas including a synthetic turf oval, two basketball courts, multiple playgrounds and a sensory play area including a vegetable garden and chicken enclosure.
We have an anticipated 2025 enrolment of approx. 390 students, grouped into 19 classes. Although our overall socio-economic profile places us in the low-medium range, we cater for a very diverse community. Mount Evelyn PS has 38 equivalent full-time staff including 2 principal class, two Learning Specialist, 24 full and part time teaching staff and 15 education support and administration staff.
Specialist programs include visual arts, performing arts/music, health and physical education, science, global education and Auslan.
At Mount Evelyn Primary School, we teach children to become lifelong learners and to not just see school primarily as a place of knowledge acquisition. Emphasis is placed upon the use of thinking tools and our students are specifically taught the importance of self-management, working collaboratively and taking responsibility. The school values of integrity (Be your best) care, respect, safety and responsibility provide the foundations for achieving this. We believe that learning is a journey, not a race. Whilst each child may make that journey in their own unique way, given adequate time, guidance and support, all can make the journey.
Our Gradual Release of Responsibility Instructional model enables students to engage in the explicit teaching of literacy and numeracy skills, be scaffolded and supported in small group sessions and independently and confidently demonstrate their learning and key understandings. Our focus is to cater to each student's individual point of need and to encourage students to become partners in their learning journey.
Mount Evelyn Primary School also offers and promotes a large number of extracurricular activities including school productions, arts festival, choirs, camps and excursions, leadership development, and Hands on Learning. Students engage in sporting opportunities including inter school sporting competitions, Hooptime, cross country running, swimming programs and athletics. Staff and student led lunchtime clubs provide opportunities for students to opt into interest based clubs, choirs and social skills/games groups. The school offers instrumental music opportunities and boasts a large school run Out of School Hours Care and Vacation care program.
Student wellbeing is supported through the engagement of a fulltime wellbeing coordinator and strong support and pastoral care programs including chaplaincy, Kids Hope, Buddies and peer mediation. Our whole school wellbeing process is based on the Berry Street Educational Model in which all staff are fully trained.
Mount Evelyn Primary School encourages all teachers, students and families to work together as a learning community; one that is dedicated to caring and support, active participation and positive expectations for all students.
