Tallawong Public School

About the project

Library

As part of the NSW Government's plan to rebuild public education, the NSW Budget is delivering $3.9 billion for new and upgraded schools in Western Sydney. This targeted investment will ensure growing communities get access to a world class public education.

Construction is underway to deliver a new primary school in Tallawong to meet the future population growth in North West Sydney.

While construction for the permanent school continues, a temporary school was opened Day 1 Term 1 2024 at Riverstone Public School to address current student enrolment demand.

The new permanent facilities will be completed in early 2026 with the new school site opening on Day 1 Term 2 2026.

Further updates regarding the new primary school in Tallawong will be released as the project progresses.
