Port Macquarie Public School
The Port Macquarie Public School was historically the first school established in Port Macquarie. It is situated on a hilltop overlooking Town Beach, with sweeping views of the north shore and surrounding hinterland. The close proximity of the central business district, historical points of interest and recreational facilities provides opportunities for student participation in wider community programs and activities. The school provides a diverse range of opportunities in a safe and happy environment, whilst preparing all students for the challenges of the new millennium. Our school motto is 'Honour and Pride'. The school community is committed to providing quality learning through quality student welfare initiatives. We boast a unique blend of students from many different backgrounds. Students are served by Support Classes and an Opportunity Class, as well as mainstream classes from Kindergarten to Year Six. As well, within the environs of a large primary school, we cater for students who have special needs, are gifted or disabled. The school provides many opportunities for students to excel academically, in sport, music and drama.
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.
