| Overview Bolgart Primary School is a small government wheatbelt school located an hour and a half north east of Perth in the Midlands Education District. Most students come from agricultural backgrounds from the surrounding area. We are committed to providing quality education in an inclusive, caring and supportive learning environment. The School has a strong emphasis on developing student skills in literacy and numeracy. We also enjoy the benefits of an informed, supportive and involved community. Our student population has ranged from 46 to 50 students in 2005. The school has two full-time classes and one part time class. All are multi-age group classes of students across two or more year levels. A strength of our school is in the high level of parental involvement in all aspects of school life. The P & C Committee is active in supporting the learning program of our students by contributing to School planning and the implementation of these plans. School Council, in consultation with the community, continues to be a focus group working on long-term planning, reviewing school results and student outcomes in detail and making recommendations as a consequence to be included in school planning for 2006. Bolgart Primary School offers a wide and varied curriculum designed to meet the learning needs of each child. The curriculum is child-centred and involves children in a collaborative learning environment. Literacy and numeracy continue to be focus areas across the school with resources allocated accordingly.
