New school name announcement:

We are excited to announce that Verney Road School will be known by our new name, ‘Banmira Specialist School‘.
‘Banmira’ is a local Yorta Yorta and Bangarang language word meaning ‘valley’ (for example, Goulburn Valley).

School-Wide Positive Behaviour Support
School Wide Positive Behaviour Support (SWPBS) is a framework that helps us to plan and implement practices across the whole school, to improve educational and behaviour outcomes for all students.
The SWPBS framework is founded on a positive approach to whole school well being with targeted approaches for students with higher levels of need.
