Morphett Vale Primary School and Preschool

Morphett Vale Primary School and Preschool Learning is our passion and children are at the centre of everything we do.

On behalf of the Morphett Vale Primary School Community, we offer you a very warm welcome. At Morphett Vale Primary School, we understand that at the heart of every parent’s decision is a desire to see their child happy, safe and achieving to their capacity. We know that families want their child to enjoy and gain value from their schooling lives, gain a passion for learning and be supported, as r

equired, to achieve success across all domains of their development. Our key goal as a school community is to support each child to gain the necessary knowledge, skills and attributes to ensure that they are confident, competent and engaged in both their schooling as well as in their lives generally. Our work is focussed on supporting and preparing our students to take their place in the world as responsible citizens that lead enjoyable and fulfilling lives. We aim high and offer a range of innovative programs and practices that strongly support our students to achieve the very best they can. Our school environment is open and welcoming and is underpinned by high standards and a strong commitment to our school community values. Please don’t hesitate to contact the school in regard to any question or query that you may have. We would be pleased to elaborate on any aspect of our school as well as organise a school tour if you require.

💙 Celebrating our incredible SSOs – SSO Week 2026 💙
This week, I want to take a moment to recognise and sincerely thank the amazing School Support Officers at Morphett Vale Primary School.
Our SSOs are such an important part of the heart of our school. Every day, they bring patience, care, compassion and commitment to the children and students of our preschool and school.
They build strong relationships with our children and students, recognise and celebrate their progress, support them through challenging moments, and help create an environment where every child/student feels supported, included and able to engage in their learning.
I see every day how much our SSOs give to their roles. They are flexible, patient and willing to step in wherever they are needed.
I am very proud of the SSO team we have at Morphett Vale Primary School and appreciate the way they support each other, our staff and, most importantly, our students.
Thank you for everything you bring to our school each day. I hope you know how much you are appreciated.

Happy SSO Week!

Melissa Mundy

✨ Mini Me Monday ✨

First things first… last week’s chocolate-covered little cutie was none other than our Admin/Finance superstar, Tina! 🍫💗

Now, who could this bright-eyed Mini Me be? 👶

🌏 This week’s clue: As a child, they loved collecting postcards from every country they visited — creating quite the little collection of memories from around the world! ✈️📮

🌟 **WAKAKIRRI 2026** 🌟

What a night! 🎭✨

Last night, our incredible students took to the Wakakirri stage alongside five other schools — and we could not be prouder of them.

It was a **huge** day, with our students and staff leaving school at 11am and not finishing until after 9pm. Yet through every rehearsal, backstage hustle, nervous moment and long hour, our children were simply outstanding. Their dedication, resilience and commitment to bringing their story to life was inspiring.

And bring it to life they did! ❤️ The crowd roared as our students made us laugh, captivated us with their performance and, for some of us, even brought a few tears. Watching them tell their story with such confidence, energy and heart was something very special.

None of this would be possible without our wonderful **Miss Michelle**. The countless hours, energy and love she pours into Wakakirri are extraordinary. She has an incredible ability to not only believe in what our children are capable of, but to help **them believe it too**. We are incredibly fortunate to have her creating opportunities like this for our learners to shine. 💫

A huge thank you also to **Mr Plush, Mrs Mathews, our staff and our wonderful family volunteers** who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make the day possible. It truly takes a village, and we are so grateful for ours.

We are enormously proud of our children, our staff and everything our little school continues to achieve together. 💛

Now we wait to see where this Wakakirri journey takes us next…

**Chookas!** 🎭✨

🚓 **A Visit from SAPOL!** 👮‍♀️👮‍♂️

We were lucky to welcome two of our local police officers to Morphett Vale Primary School for a special visit!

Our students participated wonderfully in discussions about **community safety**, sharing their ideas, asking questions and learning more about the important role police play in keeping our community safe. 💙

Of course, a definite highlight was heading outside to get an up-close look at the police car — complete with flashing lights and sirens! 🚨 There were plenty of excited faces!

A big thank you to our local officers for taking the time to visit, connect with our children and make learning about safety such a fun and memorable experience. 💙🚓

👶🍫 Mini Me Monday 🍫👶

Someone clearly got caught chocolate-handed! 😂

This week’s adorable Mini Me was born in sunny Queensland ☀️🌴 — and judging by this photo, had excellent taste from a very young age! 🍫

Can you guess which member of our staff this chocolate-loving little Queenslander grew up to be? 👀

All will be revealed Friday! 💛

✨ MINI ME MONDAY REVEAL — WITH A PRINCIPAL’S DAY TWIST! ✨

That little cutie from Monday is none other than our very own Principal, Melissa Mundy! 💛

And yes… we may have timed this one perfectly, because today is Principal’s Day! 😉

Today is the perfect opportunity to say a heartfelt thank you to Melissa for everything she brings to Morphett Vale Primary School.

Thank you for knowing our children — not just their names, but who they are. For knowing and valuing your staff, for always making time for a conversation, and for helping create a school where children and families feel welcomed, known and that they belong.

Most of all, thank you for leading a school where learning is about so much more than academics — where curiosity is encouraged, individuality is celebrated, and every child is supported to grow, learn and thrive. 🌱

We are incredibly lucky to have you leading our little school community, Melissa. We hope you know just how appreciated you are — today and every day.

Happy Principal’s Day! 💐💛

📚🐻 "Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?" 🐻📚

Our newest Reception students have been busy settling into school life, and we couldn't be prouder of how much they've achieved already! 💙

Miss Jess has been working hard to create a welcoming, play-based learning environment where every child feels safe, confident and excited to learn. Through stories, songs, games and hands-on experiences, our newest learners are building their confidence every day.

Watching our Reception students enthusiastically read Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? together is a wonderful reminder that learning through play lays the foundation for literacy, communication and a lifelong love of learning.

We can't wait to see how much these little learners grow throughout the rest of the year! 🌟
