I am proud to be principal of Buderim Mountain State School; a school with a strong sense of community spirit that is renowned for its academic achievements.
From the school's commencement in 1875 right up to the present time we have strived to offer the families of Buderim Mountain a high-quality educational experience. Over this time the school has gained an esteemed record because of our ability to foster caring and capable students, and our proven track record as one of the highest performing state schools in the Sunshine Coast region. We also focus on building our students' social and emotional intelligence through our homegrown PERKS program, which focusses on positivity, empathy, resilience, kindness and self-awareness.
Our school offers many extracurricular and support programs to ensure each child receives the unique educational experience they require, and we are proud of the excellent facilities available on campus to our students. Facility highlights include a new $8.5 million air-conditioned hall with sporting and performing arts enhancements, a heated school swimming pool, tennis and basketball courts, a large oval, multiple playgrounds, air-conditioned classrooms, an extensive library, STEM lab and access to the latest technology.
Our experienced teaching staff are committed and passionate and work hard to combine traditional teaching methods with proven contemporary strategies.
We value the personal involvement and participation of each family and consider it a vital component of a successful school experience. Parents are welcome to visit the school to discuss their children's progress, and I encourage every family to contribute to the school's calendar of events.
To ensure our school is the best it can be, we inspire all children to work to the best of their ability; to follow the school rules; to wear the school uniform with pride; to show respect, and to be considerate and tolerant of others.
The best way to get to know our school is to visit in person, so with this in mind I would like to invite you along to one of our regular tours. Please contact the office to arrange a booking, and I look forward to meeting you in person.
Kind Regards,
Neil Jenkins, Principal
