At MRIS, each student:
Works towards fulfilling their potential in an atmosphere of respect, cooperation, self discipline and creativity.
Learns in classes structured to provide for each child’s educational and emotional needs, ensuring scholastic achievement and self-development.
Learns how to feel good about themselves, become self motivated and continue the enjoyment of life-long learning.
Student Participation
Each week, all students attend a meeting to discuss and solve problems of concern to either themselves or their teachers. They also discuss fundraising opportunities and honour worthy students with virtue certificates. This meeting is chaired by the older students with the help of the teachers.
Camps and Outdoor Pursuits
Each class attends an annual camp with their teachers to provide real life experiences in exciting and motivating surroundings. Students also have the opportunity to participate in bushwalking, gymnastics, and surfing.
The annual MRIS Meander Mayhem, a fund-raising fun run is also a popular event held on campus .https://mris.wa.edu.au/dirty-wet-sweaty-fun-meander-mayhem/
Natural Environment
Classrooms are spacious and stimulating. The school is situated close to the natural bush and children are encouraged to care for their environment. The Nyindamurra Nature Trail opened in 2013 providing a wonderful learning experience for the students.
Graduation
Our graduating students celebrate their Graduation with a public performance and receive a lifetime memento of a framed piece of their artwork.
