The Russell Vale Farm
The Russell Vale school farm is at the heart of our learning community. Students take part in hands-on experiences that build responsibility, teamwork and respect for the environment. Whether caring for animals or growing produce, every lesson connects learning with life.
“We chose Russell Vale because as soon as we walked through the gate, we felt calm. We were welcomed by the principal, who knew all the children we passed by name. That joyful inclusivity runs deep; it extends from staff to parents and students alike. We feel lucky to be part of such a beautiful community.” – Parent, 2025
