Falls Creek Primary School is a remote, rural school in an alpine environment in the Upper Kiewa Valley, 30 kilometres from Mt Beauty in north east Victoria. Student numbers vary seasonally from an initial enrolment of 12 at the beginning of the 2011, to a maximum of 40 in the winter terms. The purpose of the Falls Creek Primary School is to provide a range of challenging, integrated and motivating learning experiences for our students in all curriculum areas, which will develop high standards, foster high self esteem, maximise each child’s potential and prepare them for further education. This is done in a positive, caring environment with teachers, parents and students working together in partnership. We value: fairness, respect and trust, cooperation and teamwork, honesty and integrity and the rights of individuals. Our school has a strong environmental education program which is enhanced by our unique location adjacent to the Alpine National Park. In winter we have an extensive snow sports program. We are proud of our achievement of Australian Interschools Champion Snowsports Primary School for the last 3 consecutive years from 2008 to 2010.
