Exciting news for Mount Macedon Primary: Branch Out is coming to you in 2025!
Childhood is a thrilling journey filled with rapid changes and a whirlwind of emotions. To help our children navigate this pivotal time, we’re thrilled to introduce Branch Out—a dynamic, evidence-based program designed to support our primary school students in achieving optimal mental health and well-being now and into the future!
What is in store?
Through the innovative use of live theatre in collaboration with Brainstorm Productions, students will be presented with a wellbeing and resilience program called ‘Being Brave’. This program equips our young learners with the tools to recognise and regulate their emotions as well as support others with taught positive coping strategies!
Offered by mental health clinicians from Tuning in to Kids, caregivers and teachers are also offered emotional coaching to help respond to their children’s emotions and help foster their ability to regulate emotions themselves.
Branch Out takes a proactive and preventative approach to mental health, aiming to address challenges before they arise—setting our children up for success as they move into high school and beyond.
Let’s come together to nurture the emotional wellbeing of our community!

Our Community Carols by Candlelight are this Wednesday!
Please come and join us for a fun night of community fun.
The evening starts with pre-show entertainment at 5.30 with the singing starting at 6.00pm.
We ask that all children be there by 6.00pm ready to perform.
Our school is divided into two groups this year Foundation to Grade 2 and Grade 3 to 6.
Just a reminder that as this is an after hours community event and therefore student’s are not under the supervision of the school and need to be supervised by their parents/care givers.
Hope to see you all there!
