Model Farms is proudly comprehensive and focused on high expectations and the celebration of excellence. Students are encouraged to strive for their personal best in academic, creative and sporting pursuits within a caring learning community.
Model Farms is a local, comprehensive and proudly public high school serving all families within its community. We remain committed to our mission: "Caring and Educating for the Future". The school has a strong sense of community, both our community within and our ties with the local community. A strong spirit of inclusiveness is evident. Each child is valued and their individual differences respected. By setting high expectations of effort, behaviour and uniform we seek to enable all children to achieve their academic potential and to develop into responsible and caring citizens.Our parents are proud of their school and we have devoted much time and energy to supporting its programs.
The P&C is an important part of school life - providing a valuable link between parents, citizens and school staff. Our P&C motto is Connecting Parents & Citizens with Our School. One way this is achieved is through our monthly meetings which provide a forum to learn about and discuss issues affecting the education of school students.
P&C periodically hosts Topic Talks on various aspects of the school curriculum and school life. Topic Talks provide an excellent opportunity for parents to gain a greater understanding of the subject and ask the questions they feel most important in relation to their child"s education.
The P&C raises money through several activities. Our uniform shop supports the school"s uniform policy and also raises significant funds which are used to improve school resources and facilities such as the purchase of textbooks and the extension of air conditioning to classrooms. Our happy volunteers are waiting to serve you - why not join them!
Each May, the P&C holds its main fund raiser, a Trivia Night which, apart from being heaps of fun, raises money for projects such as fitting out the new school hall.
Whether you are a keen fund raiser or simply want to know more about what is going on in your school please join us at our regular meetings on the first Wednesday in the month (during school terms) at 7:00pm.
