Lansdowne Public School
Lansdowne Public School is located twenty minutes from Taree in a rural setting. Our current enrolment of approximately 80 students is spread across four classrooms. We have 15% enrolment of ATSI students (12 students). Our team of dedicated, caring and highly motivated staff help to create a learning environment that delivers explicit, sequential and challenging programs within the quality teaching framework. Our smaller class sizes mean each child receives more personalised attention from their teacher. A strong emphasis is placed on literacy and numeracy within the school. Focus is on evidence based literacy and numeracy practices. An extensive technology presence is maintained at Lansdowne Public School combining wireless internet connected computers, tablets and interactive whiteboards in every classroom and the library. Video conferencing facilities are established in both the double classroom and library. Our environmental program is comprehensive with projects to enhance our school's sustainability. The importance of student voice is an integral part of our school philosophy as evidenced by our Student Parliament program. Strong partnerships with our broader school community continue to develop and strengthen ensuring enhanced outcomes for all our students.
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.
