Bright P12 College

Including - Dinner Plain Campus (winter months only)

School Profile

Purpose Statement:

We exist to provide a stimulating learning environment that enables every student to build core skills and pursue opportunities for achievement and excellence in order to best prepare them for their individual life journeys.
The College, situated within a unique natural environment and bolstered by an inclusive, supportive community, continuously strives to nurture the health and wellbeing of each student and staff member while fostering creativity, inspiring growth and building capacity and character.

College Values:

Bright P-12 College is committed to providing a culture of inspiration, wellbeing and achievement amongst students and staff in their academic, creative, social, citizenship and sporting pursuits. 

The College has adopted the School Wide Positive Behaviour model, and utilises a clearly defined Decision Matrix for Behaviour Management.

Location:

The College is set in 10 hectares of landscaped grounds in the tourist township of Bright, which is situated in the picturesque Ovens Valley, 310km north east of Melbourne. The nearest major city, Wangaratta is 80km to the west and Albury/Wodonga 110km north-west. Magnificent Alpine country and river valleys offer a wide variety of year-round activities including skiing, bush walking, bike riding and a wide range of sports.

The College's population comprises approximately 240 primary and 270 secondary students enrolled from the Bright township and the neighboring towns of Porepunkah, Harrietville and Wandiligong. The College and Primary schools in these towns form the Alpine Cluster, and work cooperatively on transition, sports programs and a range of common interests. The College also operates a campus at Dinner Plain during the winter ski season that caters for students living on the mountain during this time.

The College coordinates four buses, which transport students from the Buckland Valley, Ovens, Harrietville, Wandiligong and Porepunkah. Approximately 200 students (P-12) are transported on these school buses.

Demographics:

The College began as a primary school on its present site in 1865. The original handmade brick building constructed in 1876 is still utilised. The evolution to a P-12 College in the 1990s followed a long period as a primary school and Higher Elementary school.

The major industry in Bright is tourism, replacing tobacco and timber that were the major agricultural industries. Fruit, nuts and wine grapes are now established primary industries. Due to the changes in technology and work, has enabled many families to make a tree-change to Bright and often relocating their workspace to the area.

The college caters for students funded through the Students with Disabilities Program. These students range from Level 1 to Level 4.

Other Significant Factors:

There is a strong commitment to providing a wide range of programs, including:

-     An Arts & Technology program incorporating music, visual arts, visual communication, wood/metal technology, food and fabric and instrumental & classroom music

-     Outdoor Education programs from Year 9 to Year 12.

-     VCE programs are currently enhanced with VET Engineering, Hospitality, Beauty, Building & Construction, Music, Health Services and Sport & Recreation.

-     Careers advice and support from Year 9.

-     Skiing and snowboarding, including a Race Team which competes at State and National levels

Strong parent and community support is evident in classrooms, through involvement in fundraising activities and membership of College Council and its sub-committees. This support is evidenced in the primary area for the delivery of Literacy programs. The College has developed strong relationships with many community groups within the local area.

The College runs an extensive Languages program from Prep to Year 12:

-     Japanese immersion program in lower Primary year levels, with Japanese being studied right through Primary school

-     Japanese, German and Indigenous Studies in the Secondary area.

-     Exchange programs to Japan and Germany by students, teachers and parents.
