An exciting challenge and opportunity lies in providing a learning environment that simultaneously respects diversity, while building college and community identity and pride.
Robinvale College was established as a new entity in January 2016 through the closure of Robinvale P-12 College which was formed in 2010 through the merger of Robinvale Secondary College and Robinvale Consolidated School. The College serves a large horticultural and agricultural community.
As a rural school, Robinvale College¿s student profile is unique. The college is proud of its many cultures including Anglo Celtic, Italian, Koorie, Polynesian, Greek and Asian. In 2020 approximately 56% of the students were either of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander, or Polynesian descent. In recent years the local community has seen an influx of new arrivals; there are over 40 different nationalities, including refugees from the Middle East and Horn of Africa ¿ all in a town of 8,000 people. The need to provide inclusive educational opportunities for the many diverse cultures of students is fundamental.
Raising achievement in Literacy and Numeracy continues to be the focus of student learning. The College aims for a combination of high-quality teaching practices focusing on using data to inform practice and high levels of student engagement, primarily through students having a sense of ownership of their data and setting challenging goals. We aim for students to develop resilience to persevere through any challenges and to navigate the everyday issues that affect them in a spirit of problem-solving, optimism, creativity, and fun.
In 2019 Robinvale College entered into a 10-year agreement with the Colman Foundation to become an `Our Place¿ School. This exciting partnership will support the opportunity for Robinvale College to provide families with a greater level of access to a range of services.
