19.01.2022 Mt Manypeaks students had a great morning connecting to country at Ballogup with Larry and Vernice. They also participated in seed collecting from local plant species with Southcoast NRM.

01.01.2022 The Senior Room students went on an excursion to Lake Pleasant View (Ballogup) this morning to find out about the cultural significance of the site. A large rock overlooks a lake, which was a campsite in the past for the local aboriginal people. Plans are in place to develop the site as an educational resource.

29.12.2021 Today we began our Story Dogs program with Wally. Story Dogs is a reading support program where selected children read to an accredited dog and it’s handler. Reading takes place in our library and sessions run for 20 minutes, where each child is one-on-one with Wally and Mrs Mountford. Wally loved the stories that were read to him!

14.12.2021 It is W.A bike month. This initiative by the Department of Transport is to promote and encourage bike riding for transport, fun and for a healthier life style. We will be joining Wellstead and South Stirling primary school next Friday for a fun filled day of bike riding.

03.11.2021 Wow! What a difference six weeks makes! Manypeaks students have been building their resilience, coordination and concentration during weekly Taekwondo lessons with Kristy from Albany Taekwondo. Today in their final lesson they were able to practice their front kicks on breakboards

15.10.2021 We are approaching the mid-point of the Noongar season Djilba, this season brings us a mixture of wet days with increasing number of clear, cold nights and pleasant warm days. It is also the season when our Menang plant is ready to harvest. This plant is the name sake of the Menang Noongar people of the Albany region. We have patiently waited for our bulb to establish for a couple of years before digging it up today to check on its progress, this is a very special part of ou...r bush tucker garden that we are working on with the support of Woolworths Landcare Grants and grants through the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries. Today we are planting out some of our new bush tucker plants into this area which is apart of our early childhood play space. Children love not only using these ingredients during our kitchen garden program but also exploring and using the real ingredients in their mud kitchen.

13.10.2021 Today our junior school took advantage of the sun shine to clear some of the Sydney Wattle around the townsite, while this weed is in flower it’s a great time to spot it and remove it!

06.10.2021 Today Mount Manypeaks Primary School is celebrating the third annual WA P&C day. P&C day is to recognise, appreciate and celebrate the work our P&C Association does to support our students and school. We appreciate the time they put in to fundraise for our school to provide our children with extra experiences and resources.

23.09.2021 Our final day of term two! A family sausage sizzle, an end of semester assembly with performances from our little band of ukulele players, senior room choir and a very cute surprise visitor! What could be better?

14.09.2021 We had a great visit to Albany Bunnings Warehouse Australia today to see how it is all run behind the scenes and to spend our Woolworths landcare grant to expand our bush tucker garden. We even managed to sneak a walk in between showers around Mt Melville up into the quarry site, of course we stepped in every puddle along the way!

03.09.2021 Our 20 jars of flowers are now all sold, thanks to everyone for supporting our pop up sale We will be selling jars of flowers at Bay Merchants Cafe this Saturday to fund raise for some new woodworking tools (the junior room are very excited for potential trip to the new BIG Bunnings to buy some supplies for their projects.)
