Mornington SDS is proud to be recognized by our community as an innovative and individualized educational setting.
Our school caters for children aged 2.8 years in the Early Education Program and students from 5 to 18 years in our Prep, Junior, Middle and Senior school.
We value the support and active involvement of parents who assist with excursions, school council, camps, fundraising projects, working bees, special activities & theme days. They make a positive contribution to our learning community. According to our Principal Mr David Newport, “We don’t just enrol a child, we enrol the whole family”
Our school is committed to providing all students with challenging and engaging learning outcomes based on the Victorian Curriculum.
We actively promote the philosophy of continuous improvement and celebrate student success, team work and achievements. We offer modern purpose built learning spaces set in a safe and secure environment. Each classroom has an integrated SMART board, ipads and computers for student use.
The team of specialist support personal
include a Guidance Officer from the Department of Education, Physiotherapist, Speech Pathologist and an Occupational Therapist.
Communication is a major focus of each child’s individual learning plan. A variety of communication methods are used throughout the school including speech, PECS, PODD and iPads. We welcome visitors to tour our school and meet and greet our students and staff.
We are honoured to have strong links with the Mornington and Hastings Communities and the support of groups such as The Lions Club and Rotary. The Mornington Peninsula Shire, Mornington Park Primary, Woodleigh, Bunnings and local community groups work with us to provide additional recourses for our school.
