About this school, from public sources

Public online sources describe Mark Oliphant College as South Australia's first purpose-built facility combining preschool, primary, and secondary education on one site in Munno Para. The R-12 college is organised into four connected sub-schools around a shared village green, and offers Aboriginal education, inclusive education, VET pathways, and digital learning programs. The school promotes a values-based culture (respect, kindness, belonging, responsibility) with wellbeing support, a Positive Behaviour for Learning framework, and student voice through a representative council.
