Xuno Communication App
Mulgrave is very excited to launch the new parent portal – XUNO (pronounced ‘zoo-no’). This initiative will enable parents to log in and have immediate access to student information. Information available to you will include your student’s timetable and attendance in classes, student reports and unexplained absences.
New features of the system will include direct communication with your student’s teachers, up to date news items and information, greater breakdown of attendance and access to your student’s achievements. XUNO is also used to make bookings for interviews before key reporting periods and before parent/teacher interviews.
XUNO is also used to showcase news items and calendar events to assist parents with planning and keeping up to date with what is happening at the School.

Parent Helpers
We value the assistance of parent helpers in our classrooms and with other school activities. It is a requirement of school council, that all volunteers at our school hold a current Working With Children Check (WWC check) and that these details are recorded on our Register of Volunteers. If you would like to assist in the classroom or with other school activities, please provide details of your WWC check to our school office and also ensure you update your details with the Department of Justice and Regulation, to include Mulgrave Primary School as a place you volunteer.

Camp Australia – Guiding Children’s Growth
We are proud to partner with Camp Australia to provide our Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) program.
Camp Australia programs are centered on child enrichment while ensuring a reliable, engaging, and hassle-free OSHC service at our school. Their engaged educators foster a safe, inclusive environment where children can relax, have fun and grow.
Your OSHC – OSHC that inspires
At Your OSHC by Camp Australia, every before school, after school, and pupil free day program is tailored to the likes and interests of each child in service. Camp Australia’s educators design enriching experiences to inspire your children’s confidence, independence, and imagination. In any one week, they could be participating in science experiments, active play, creative expression, and more – they believe in learning through experience so that each child can grow.
Rocketeers – Extraordinary Holiday Adventures
Rocketeers by Camp Australia is a space for children to escape the ordinary and experience the extraordinary during their school holidays. Every school holiday break is a new mission for children to embark upon. With carefully designed programs, directed by the children and informed by family feedback, no two days are the same with Rocketeers. Experiences planned could include games, arts & crafts, sport, excursions, cooking, coding, and more.

Music Lessons
Mulgrave Primary School has a company that comes to us to teach your children musical instruments or vocal lessons.
Wonnies would like to welcome all families to a new year of music lessons. We are looking forward to working with new and current
families again in 2021.
ENROLMENTS ARE NOW BEING TAKEN
Music lessons that are taught at school are to provide children an opportunity to learn in an environment that they are familiar with. Our primary objective with teaching at schools is to build the best music program (with the support of the music co-ordinator), for the school and to encourage as many children to learn one of the many instruments that we offer.
Parents no longer have to drive their children to lessons after school and with our program, there are plenty of opportunities to perform and to join our school bands. We work together with the school to ensure that children are not taken from their ‘specialist’ or ‘core learning’ subjects to attend lessons.
Individual or Group Lessons are available at all schools.
Children are collected from their class during school hours, at recess or lunch. Our teachers make sure their students are not missing the same class each week.
ALL OUR TEACHERS HAVE A WORKING WITH CHILDREN CHECK.
