Mount Egerton Primary School is a rural primary school approximately 30 kilometres south-east of Ballarat. Our school motto is ‘Living and Learning Together Since 1856’.

We see our core purpose as providing a friendly and caring learning environment that encourages students to work towards achieving their personal best in an atmosphere of mutual respect and cooperation while becoming valued members of our local and global community.

We model and promote our core values of kindness, wisdom, integrity and courage in everyday life. Our school community believes that the school's success can be attributed to its small class sizes and the individual attention given to each student to ensure their on-going academic achievement.
