MARC Van

\n\n

The MARC (Mobile Area Resource Centre) Library Van, staffed by Libby Ahern, visits once fortnight on Wednesday to provide library lessons for students and book borrowing for students and staff. The MARC Van teacher also organises an annual camp at Rubicon Outdoor Centre where students in Years 3-6 have the unique opportunity to work closely with an author/illustrator for three days.

Indonesian

\n\n

Buxton Primary School introduced a Language teaching program in 2014 in the form of  Indonesian. Indonesian is taught to all students from Year Foundation to Year 6 and includes common greeting, number work, colours and developing into whole conversations. Our experienced Language Teacher Marian Rice ensures that the students are fully engaged in language learning with hands on activities that stimulate the students understanding of the Indonesian language. Our Language Assistant Robita Ika Annisa provides outstanding teaching and learning support.

Gardening

\n\n

Gardening continues to be an integral part of the curriculum. The well-established vegetable garden produces fresh food

\n\n

for the kitchen garden project, supplemented with eggs from the school's free range hens.

\n\n

Recent upgrades to buildings and surrounds have provided new opportunities for gardening projects. Staff from Berry Street and the Upper Goulburn Landcare Network worked with students and staff to establish fruit trees, berries and a bush tucker garden, to further supplement the kitchen garden project. Buxton Primary is also fortunate to have a Natural Bush Area as part of the school grounds, which are all Land for Wildlife. This area, which includes a range of signifiant local indigenous plants, is currently undergoing significant landscaping, to preserve and enhance the natural bush setting as it continues to regenerate following the 2009 bushfires. The Natural Bush Area is an important focus in students' environmental education.

Science Club

\n\n

In 2014 the school introduced a Science club that takes place each Tuesday lunchtime with a different focus every term. This club involves the students in practical experiments and ensures that they have a good grounding in scientific knowledge. Our Science Club volunteer facilitator is Matthew Corkhill. Thank you, Mr C.
