Guthrie Street Primary School is a highly regarded school located in Shepparton. The equivalent of 40 full time staff (3 Principal Class, 29 teachers and 8 Education Support Officers) are committed to preparing our 485 students for living and learning in the 21st Century. Our curriculum is broad and dynamic; our classrooms are learning centres rich in technology. A high priority is placed on the development of literacy and numeracy skills. We acknowledge that our children have varying skills and abilities: they learn in diverse ways and progress at different rates. Enrichment opportunities and support for learning are provided to ensure all students build firm foundations in these key areas of learning. Guthrie Street provides a range of specialist programs. Physical Education, Art, Library and learning to sign in AUSLAN offer students a wealth of opportunities, challenges and joys. All students are formally taught the elements of Emotional Intelligence. This explicit teaching develops self-awareness, self-control, self-motivation, empathy and the ability to get along with others. At Guthrie Street we continually challenge our students to achieve their personal best and to make the most of every opportunity that life at school provides.
