Message from the Board of Trustees
The world is changing at such a frantic pace and
here at Murrays Bay Intermediate we are committed to empower every
child with the knowledge, tools and ability to maximize their individual
potential not only now but in years to come.
It took 30 years for a quarter of the population
to be using the telephone in the USA, yet only seven years for a
quarter of the population to be using the internet ... We are preparing
students for jobs that currently may not exist and to use technology
that is not yet invented and ultimately preparing them with the
emotional intelligence to solve problems that have not yet been
considered.
As the Board of Trustees it is our responsibility
to ensure that our Strategic Plan is continually realigned with
the changing world and that it embodies our commitment to deliver
significant, sustainable learning outcomes that prepare and inspire
all children to have self confidence, motivation and the ability
to excel in all they desire to pursue.
We feel that our Invitational School is truly an
exciting place in which to learn and our last Education Review Office
statement affirmed
this in their favourable report that stated; 'Students are increasingly
able to manage their own learning. They are highly motivated and
apply a variety of learning processes and strategies in different
contexts of study.'
We have some exciting new projects proposed during
the next few years including a new purpose designed and built auditorium,
a new canteen layout and many of our existing buildings will be
modernised.
We welcome and encourage parent involvement during
this exciting phase of your child's educational journey, be it attending
a school trip, camp or coaching a school sports team. I am sure
you and your child will enjoy their time at Murrays Bay Intermediate.
Phil Cunninghame, Chairperson 2010, Board
of Trustees
