Chatsworth Island Public School

Chatsworth Island Public School has been a focal point for the local community for the past 141 years. The school is set adjacent to the beautiful Clarence River in the small village of Chatsworth Island. The staff and parents are proud to maintain the ethos of a small school by ensuring that all students are catered for and their needs individually addressed. Our students prosper in a safe, inclusive and nurturing learning environment. Strong academic programs, highly dedicated staff and excellent facilities offer students the very best opportunities for success. Our effective support and discipline program focuses on respect, responsibility and citizenship. The school's motto 'Justice For All' underpins our school philosophy in being able to give all students the best education possible. An integral part of the shool's learning environment is its focus on the promotion of a healthy and active lifestyle. This is achieved through many initiatives and programs and a highly inclusive approach to all sporting and physical education activities. We are proud of our welcoming and friendly school community.

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.
