Bombala Public School

Bombala Public School, established in 1863, is the only public primary school in Bombala. At present we have an enrolment of about 137 students. The community and the parent body are extremely supportive of the school and an effective open door policy is in place. Student welfare is of the utmost importance with such things as Peer Support, Rewards system, Child Protection and Sun Smart programs in place. The Country Areas Program provides significant funds, which enable the school to provide both staff and students with quality opportunities that may otherwise be out of our reach. A middle school program runs in conjunction with Bombala High School and other district primary schools. There are also Kindergarten to Year 12 Assemblies shared with Bombala High to celebrate such things as Education Week. The school grounds are delightful, making a pleasant working environment for both students and staff. The school participates in the Region's Focussed School Support Program.

Maintenance

To ensure the safety, reliability and longevity of our schools, every school across NSW receives maintenance. The Department undertakes preventative and routine maintenance every year, and repairs as needed. The Department also reviews the planned maintenance program for each school every year and reviews those items that are predicted to require work to help prolong the life of the school buildings and facilities.

Demountables

Demountables have been part of the NSW education system for many decades and will continue to be used across the state. Demountable classrooms are modern, air-conditioned rooms that provide students and teaching staff with excellent quality facilities. The learning spaces have the same range of technology that is available in permanent spaces. We review school accommodation needs each year, looking at changing enrolment patterns and other factors to prepare for the upcoming school year. This helps to identify schools that need new demountables and schools where they can removed. Most demountable movement takes place between October and February and we report our annual demountable statistics each April. Additional demountable installations can occur outside this window to support capital works and maintenance projects in schools or emergency responses to natural disasters.

We recognise the Ongoing Custodians of the lands and waterways where we work and live. We pay respect to Elders past and present as ongoing teachers of knowledge, songlines and stories. We strive to ensure every Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander learner in NSW achieves their potential through education.
