English as an Additional Language / Dialect (EAL/D)

Murray Farm Public School places great emphasis on developing values of inclusion and respect for cultural differences in the school and in the community. Our increasing enrolment of Non-English Speaking Background learners now comprises 88.9% of the school population. The EAL/D teacher allocation has ensured that all learners are provided with the appropriate support to develop in all aspects of English in all Key Learning Areas.

Multicultural Day and Harmony Day provide a wonderful opportunity for all children to celebrate their diverse cultural backgrounds by participating in a national costume parade and varied grade activities throughout the day. Learning about a new culture through performances is thoroughly enjoyed by everyone.

Murray Farm is community orientated and programs organised for our parents and carers, by the DoE Equity Team, have been a tremendous success.
