Welcome to Moorook Primary School
Moorook is a small public primary school situated about 220km
north-east from Adelaide in the Riverland. We pride ourselves on our
small class sizes and low student to teacher ratios. As such, a strong
sense of community exists within the school. We currently employ two
full-time teachers, a principal and two school services officers to
provide learning support and handle finance.
We also have a Christian Pastoral Support Worker who is employed two
days a week to support the health and wellbeing our school community.
The school has a strong teaching focus on literacy and numeracy as well
as the arts, including visual arts and music, with many students
participating in the Riverland Music festival. Further, enriching
programs
such as environmental education, cooking classes, healthy eating and
sporting and academic pursuits have been developed. Our values of
caring, honesty, respect and sportsmanship underpin all our work.
We have a strong Student Representative Council that promotes student decision-making and leadership within the school. The school's Governing Council is also proactive and encourages parent involvement and decision-making within the school environment.
