Reminder!

A huge thank you to Flo and the ladies from the Mornington Garden Club for their generous and wonderful donation of posies for Mother's Day. The ladies generously gave up their time to come and make beautiful flower arrangements for every student to take home to their special person! Thank you ladies, we truly appreciate it!

Please join us at 10.00am on Thursday 12th March for our Official Open Day!

We are excited to celebrate this special occasion with our community and will be holding a Smoking Ceremony, Ribbon Cutting, and providing light refreshments. We are also delighted to welcome local MP Tom McIntosh as a special guest on the day.

We would love to see you there!

On the night of 8th December, we came together to celebrate the graduation of our beautiful Sophie. She was surrounded by friends, family, teachers, and staff who all came to support her and show just how incredibly proud we are.

Sophie looked like an absolute princess, wearing her mum’s debutante dress — a truly special and meaningful touch that made the night even more memorable.

Sophie, you will be deeply missed, along with your wonderful extended family. We wish you all the very best in your future and know you will do amazing things. 💫💖

Congratulations, Sophie — once part of our family, always part of our family.

Term 4 finishes today at 3.00pm.

We hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and a safe and happy New Year. Thank you for a fantastic year!

Term 1, 2026 will begin on Thursday 29th January.

We can’t wait to see you all again next year!

We are delighted to congratulate Layla on being awarded this year’s Mornington Medal.

Layla is always ready to lend a hand—especially to our younger students—and consistently shows kindness, care, and a genuine willingness to help wherever it’s needed. Her cheerful attitude and the way she supports others make her a shining example of our school values.

The Mornington Medal, provided by local MP Chris Crewther’s office, recognises a student who makes a positive impact on our school community. It celebrates kindness, strong character, and a willingness to support others—honouring someone who truly shines as a positive role model at our school.

Congratulations, Layla, on this well-deserved honour!

Dear New Peninsula Baptist Church,
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks for the generous Christmas hampers you donated to all our families. The food, drinks, and Christmas bon bons brought so much joy and helped make this season extra special. Your kindness and support mean the world to our community, and we are truly grateful for your thoughtfulness and care!
With sincere appreciation,
Mornington Special Developmental School
