Our School - Your School
Invermay PS is set in a unique, rural-residential setting just minutes from Ballarat, where your child is known and cared for by our entire school community.
With an enrolment in 2020 of 66 students in our four fulltime classrooms and located less than 10mins drive north of Ballarat City Centre, IPS has all of the advantages of a boutique small school, along with the facilities of a thriving provincial city just minutes away. Our school is amazingly well resourced, with modern, attractive learning spaces; a gymnasium, 'kids in the kitchen' cooking facility; art room; spacious grounds, court surfaces and numerous playgrounds. Our tech savvy staff and students enjoy 1:1 iPads for every student and laptops in their daily learning experiences.
Invermay Primary is proud to be a supportive community where parents, staff and students work together to provide a well resourced, stimulating environment with excellent educational opportunities. Specialist guitar, ukelele, piano, tennis and golf instruction is offered weekly to our Gr 1-6 students, with some of the best credentialed coaches in Victoria leading our programs. We also offer a range of community functions and events throughout the year, with our Aths Carnival, School Production & Graduation Nights always very well attended.
At Invermay PS we strive for Happy Kids - High Achievers.......... it's the Invermay way!
** Our 2013 NAPLAN Reading growth ranked in the top third of schools nationally.
**Our 2014&15 NAPLAN data was equally pleasing, ranking in the top 30-40% of all Australian schools in assorted fields of Reading, Writing & Spelling growth.
**In 2016, 2018 & 2019, our Yr 3&5 students exceeded state and national mean scores, with their results in the top third of all Australian schools in almost all measures of Reading, Writing and Maths!
**More recently, our Victorian Department of Education have placed a firm emphasis on tracking the 'relative growth' of students over two years when completing NAPLAN firstly in Yr3, then again in Yr5. Data for our Gr 5’s in 2018 indicated the strongest level of student growth over that two year timeframe in READING, with 100% of our Gr 5’s ranked as achieving Medium or High growth in a comparison of their respective Gr 3-5 NAPLAN assessment scores. This was well above the state school average and a fantastic result for all students, parents & staff to celebrate.
