About this school, from public sources
Drawn from public online sources: Yering Primary School is one of Victoria's oldest public schools, opened in 1870, and serves around 14 students from Prep to Year 6 in the Yarra Valley. It values hands-on, individualised education in a supportive environment, with a vision of developing independent, confident and creative learners. Its small size allows a very low student-to-teacher ratio.
