The Primary Classroom is a multi-level classroom, designed to maximise learning for all student abilities. Our focus is to develop the key skills needed for success in literacy and numeracy. The room has furniture that promotes movement and collaborative learning.
Student well-being is very important. During the year the class develops strategies to promote the development of a healthy body and mind, and we are supported by a Mental Health in Primary Schools professional.
We are a Victorian government school, and follow the Victorian Curriculum. Students study English, Mathematics, Science, History, Geography, STEM and Health/Physical Education. We have specialist teachers for Japanese and Art. All students work according to their ability and not their year level.
Sporting Opportunities include an athletics and swimming carnival, and government mandated swimming lessons.
Flying Fruit Fly Circus School students have access to Wodonga Middle Years College Felltimber Canteen. Flying Fruit Fly Circus School students are encouraged to fill out a lunch order. Students can leave their order at the Fruit Fly office in the morning and collect their lunch from the canteen to avoid having to wait in line.
Students have in-school training multiple time a week, in addition to this, they participate in after school training. When involved in in-school training, students are transported by an independent bus company driver to the Circus which leaves from the school at the end of lunch time to enable training to start at 1.00pm. In-school training runs from 1.00pm until 4.00pm. Students are to be collected by parents from the Circus at the end of their training.
Our fee structure is in line with the Victorian DET guidelines.
For information relating to the fee structure for the Flying Fruit Fly Circus please contact the Circus at (02) 6043 0777.
Early each year, we run a couple of whole-school activity days. These are great team-building events that allow all our students to get to know each other – from grade 3 to year 9. These days can be paid for with the School Saving Bonus. Other excursions during the year may come up to complement our curriculum and learning programs. Parents will be notified of these excursions and any costs as they are planned.
