Message from the Principal:

"We cannot hold a torch to light another's path without brightening our own." - Ben Sweetland

Welcome back to another year of learning together, succeeding together at Manning Aurora Composite School!  I am excited to be working with a dedicated school community to build a positive learning environment where students will achieve to the best of their abilities while becoming responsible citizens.

At our school we work to provide students with the opportunities to discover, explore, imagine and learn through doing.  This means that we ask questions, get messy and acknowledge that we all learn in different ways.  We are so fortunate to have such a wide array of supportive arms envelop and support us!  It is with these partnerships between students, families, staff and the broader community that we make Manning Aurora Composite School a great place to be.

Thank you for helping us give our children roots to grow and wings to fly!
