TERM 2 - 2026

Getjawil wungurrwil Marna

The City Network is proud to launch their collaborative Marrung Plan – Getjawil Wungurrwil Marna.

The on-country launch at Yuille’s Wetlands included a Welcome to Country and water ceremony performed by Wadawarrung woman, Shannen Mennen, and songs by Sebastopol Primary School students. SEIL, Anne Gawith, spoke of the work undertaken to establish the plan, and how this is just the beginning of our collaborative work towards growing connection and culture, and fostering self-determination for our First Nations students.

Endorsed by all schools in the City Network, principals and Koorie Education Empowerment Leaders (KEELs) will be able to assess their progress and plan their actions using tools within the Getjawil Wungurrwil Marna booklet. Understanding that this work is ‘everybody’s business’ the plan will be made available for all staff within the city network.

Athletics Day in the Ararat Region

Students from Ararat North, Lake Bolac, Maroona, and Willaura Primary Schools recently came together to continue the tradition of combining for their annual athletics day. The event brought small schools together in the spirit of community, participation, and sportsmanship.

These joint events provide valuable opportunities for students to connect with peers beyond their own school, strengthening social skills, confidence, and a sense of belonging. By interacting with a wider group of students, children are able to build new friendships, practise teamwork in a larger setting, and develop resilience through healthy competition. For small schools in particular, these shared experiences enrich school life and reinforce the importance of collaboration, community, and inclusive participation.

Students have also been enjoying their recent acquisition of a Ninja Playground, which has quickly become a popular addition to the school grounds. The new equipment is providing plenty of opportunities for active play, challenge, and fun, encouraging students to test their balance, strength, and coordination while staying engaged with their peers. 

Amphitheatre PS- Continents, Countries and MARC van

MARC Van  (Mobile Area Resource Centre) is providing rural schools with valuable opportunities to engage in Geography and STEM learning in new and exciting ways. Through hands-on activities, real-world connections, and interactive resources, students are able to deepen their understanding of the world around them while developing critical thinking, problem-solving, and inquiry skills.

These experiences help bring learning to life, particularly for rural students, by broadening horizons and connecting classroom knowledge to global contexts and future-focused STEM pathways.

Landsborough PS- New additions add more colour to iconic wall mural reflecting students and staff

It’s been a busy term at Landsborough Primary School. With new student enrolments occurring, it meant it was time for 

an update to their wall mural. In 2024 a new tradition was started with every student that walks through the doors, or staff member employed at the school, having their favourite character added to the growing mural. This provides everyone with a lasting memory of fantastic book and movie characters throughout their years at school.

Handprinted on the wall by principal, Ben Gallagher (Mr G) each student and staff member gets to watch their character come to life before their eyes and with more than 30 characters on the wall now it is looking very full! From classic book characters such as Harry the Dirty Dog, Grug, Possum Magic and the Hungry Caterpillar to more modern characters Thelma the Unicorn, Pig the Pug, Mario and Whizz there is something for everyone.

The real beauty of the mural is that it is continually growing, and at all times, it is never truly complete, it’s always sitting at around 97.54% done, knowing that as someone new arrives a new character will once again be added. Before the end of the term Mr G will be adding the student’s names and years, they were painted to each character to complete the memory of the characters they chose to represent them on the Landsborough Primary School Mural.

The mural helps to maintain connection between past students and staff members and the school, whilst strengthening the ongoing connections with the school community. Community members and families are often coming in to admire the mural and talk about the character selections as well as talking to future Foundation students about characters that they might pick when they come to the school.

New Characters added for students and staff in 2026 are:

Spiderman for Billy, Whizz for Shaelah, The Unicorn on the Loo for Bridgette, Cat in the Hat for Cora, Buzz Lightyear for Col, Matilda for Miss Jess, a horse for Edwina, R2D2 for Mr Morgan and Patch for Charlie.

Ararat Secondary College - pre NAIDOC week activities 

As part of pre-NAIDOC Week celebrations, Ararat SC welcomed Chef Cat Clarke to lead First Nations students through a hands-on Indigenous cooking experience.

Students prepared a delicious menu featuring:

• Kangaroo pizzas with bush greens

• Crocodile sausage rolls

• Lemon myrtle chicken and rice

• Wattle seed chocolate mousse

Throughout the session, Cat guided students through each recipe, sharing the cultural significance of Indigenous ingredients, where they naturally grow, and how they can be sourced today. It was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate First Nations culture through food, storytelling and shared learning.

The day also included a special presentation recognising Year 12 studens, Kiah Arch, who was proudly awarded a Marrung Scholarship. Congratulations, Kiah, on this outstanding achievement!
