Manildra Public School

Manildra Public School is situated in a pleasant rural community. Good community spirit is evidenced by the large number of active local associations and sporting facilities. Most students live within the town boundaries and three buses convey the remaining 30% from rural areas. Pupils are friendly and caring wiith a great majority coming from interested and supportive families. School grounds, gardens and lawns are neatly kept and play areas are well set out and equipped for both structured and creative play. We are creating for the pupils and staff a supportive environment in which it is fun to work, learn and live. Our primary focus for the past five years has been to develop a highly effective information technology hub within which students can interact and learn. Our focus is providing students with computer tools and broadband infrastructure through which students can interact and learn from their surrounding world. Manildra Public School has a zero tolerance to poor behaviour and as such students work and learn within a harmonious, safe and happy environment. Kindness and consideration are words that describe the students of Manildra Public School.

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.
