🎉🎉🎉 WOW 🎉🎉🎉
What a sensational day we had yesterday celebrating 150 years of Buxton PS. Approximately 250+ people attended, including former principals, teachers and students. There were reunion hugs, reminiscing about school days and lots of memories shared.
We couldn't have done it without so many incredible supporters, including:
- Our current parents, grandparents and school community members who generously donated their time baking, assisting with the set up of displays, seating, running the cake stall, BBQ and the most efficient pack up I have ever seen!
- Our staff who went above and beyond and put in so many hours to bring the event together
- Buxton Progress Association who generously supported the event via the 3711 Community Fund donation
- The Buxton C.F.A members who were on-site all day with activities for the kids and adults alike, including the community information trailer, tanker demonstrations and Little Pat, who was a huge hit!
- Peter Weeks, Nomes Booker and the team from UGFM - Radio Murrindindi who shared the event via the Outside Broadcast Van, interviewing current and former staff and students
- The Rotary Club of Alexandra, who let us borrow their Art Show stands for our displays
- FoodWorks Alexandra who generously donated the sausages for the BBQ
- Our local representatives who attended and/or shared their messages of support, including Murrindindi Shire Council members, Councillor Sandice McAulay and Mayor Damien Gallagher, Member for Eildon Cindy McLeish MP and federal Member for Indi Helen Haines MP.
- Last but definitely not least, our students! They are at the heart of what makes our school amazing.

Congratulations to our wonderful students who received encouragement awards and prizes for their poems and stories that they entered into the 2025 Marysville BookNest Writing Competition.
I was very proud to see many of them accept their awards at MIRA on Saturday. For our students who couldn't make it to the presentation, the committee will present the remaining certificates at a school assembly.
Thank you so much to the Marysville BookNest for your continued support and encouragement of young writers in the Triangle Area!
