Semester One Reports
We are endeavouring to have all Semester One reports published prior to the commencement of Term Three. Parents will be able to access and download an electronic copy of their child’s report by going to Schoolbox, selecting their child’s profile and then ‘Academic Reports’. Should any unforeseen technical issues prevent this, further communication will be made.
Semester reports provide an excellent opportunity to support your child to reflect on their academic progress. We encourage a particular focus on existing strengths and the next steps for improvement. Parents seeking further feedback regarding their child’s academic achievement and progress in Semester One are welcome to contact relevant teachers next term.
A reminder also that, as a result of community feedback, we now provide reports in digital format only. If parents still wish to receive a paper copy, they may request this by emailing: reports@bmg.vic.edu.au.

Annual Report – 2024
In accordance with the Australian Education Act 2013 and the Australian Education Regulation 2013, a condition for school funding is the publication of an annual report by schools. The purpose of this is to provide parents and the community of the School’s activities and achievements each year and, in doing so, to meet Commonwealth requirements.
The Annual Report includes contextual information about the school, teacher qualifications, workforce composition, student attendance, senior secondary outcomes, post school destinations, student outcomes in standardised national literacy and numeracy testing (NAPLAN) and school income.
The Annual Report is submitted to the Victorian Registration and Qualifications Authority and is readily available on both their website and the School’s website.
Please click here to view the 2024 Annual Report which was approved by the School Board at their recent Annual General Meeting.
