Mirniyan Primary School is a state-of-the-art educational facility that from the outset strives for high student achievement and excellence. Mirniyan Primary School is a dynamic learning community providing diverse, nurturing and challenging educational opportunities. As a learning community, we have a collective commitment to nurturing strong positive attitudes to lifelong learning to develop our students as empowered citizens with strong voice and agency by supporting them to reach their personal best and full potential, both academically and socially.

Our school is diverse and culturally rich with large proportion of students having a language background other than English (LOTE) spoken in the family home. We are proud of and celebrate our diversity and inclusive school community.

We recruit highly professional, dedicated and dynamic staff who are committed to ensuring all students achieve their personal best potential by constantly striving for their own continual professional growth and encouraging students to do the same in learning and wellbeing.

Mirniyan Primary School principal and staff, along with our school community have the exciting opportunity to serve our local community to collaboratively develop an aspirational culture that is inclusive and welcoming, with high expectations for success.

Our vision is to develop confident and curious learners who respect and care themselves, others and our environment and always strive for growth.

Our mission is to develop the skills, attitudes, abilities, and dispositions of students to achieve their full academic, creative and emotional and social potential to enable them to be confident and responsible global citizens who can make positive lifelong contributions to society and the world.

 

To foster our dynamic, safe and secure learning environment, we promote and embed our school values of RESPECT, CARE and GROWTH. Our values are also integral to fostering positive and inclusive relationships across the school between staff, students, families and the community.

 

We respect ourselves, others and our lands and understand that our attitudes and behaviours influence and have an impact on us, the people and world around us.  

 

We care for ourselves, others and our environment by modelling and demonstrating kindness and thinking about the intention and impact of our behaviours and actions. 

 

We strive for growth, by working hard, having self- determination and perseverance when we are challenged, and we welcome mistakes as valuable learning.  

 

We aim to develop our students into:

        Passionate, confident, and curious learners with inquiring minds who have a lifelong love and joy of learning.

        Thriving and flourishing, empowered global citizens with highly developed learner agency and voice empowers them to impact positive change in their own     lives and in the world around them.

As a school community, we live and breathe our values and have collective responsibility to nurture and develop positive learner dispositions and mindframes in all members of our learning community. Our learner disposition and mindframes will be embedded across the school curriculum and all school activities.
