Cobbitty Public School

Cobbitty Public School, established in 1882, is situated in the village of Cobbitty on Sydney's south-west outskirts. The school is highly valued by the community and is a focal point for families across the district. Cobbitty Public School is committed to providing comprehensive quality learning opportunities for all students in a positive, safe and supportive environment. Student welfare is of paramount importance to the school community. Literacy and numeracy programs continue to provide the foundation of the school's curriculum and are supported by a diversity of programs and extra-curricular activities to meet individual student needs. Student achievements in Performing Arts include junior and senior dance group selection in the School Spectacular, Inter-district and State Dance Festivals and participation by the school's band and junior and senior choir at district festivals and special events. The school also has a proud history of achievement in sport with success in PSSA competitions, zone athletics, cross-country and swimming and local gala days. The Student Representative Council was responsible for the selection of the school motto 'Learn, Grow and Succeed Together'.

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.
