Raleigh Public School

Raleigh Public School serves a diverse community, defined by a philosophy of learning rather than by geography. The school is highly valued and supported by parents and the local community. The school's stated aim is to 'provide a stimulating, supportive learning environment which encourages students to discover and fulfil their personal potential'. Raleigh Public School seeks to promote the positive academic, social and emotional development of each individual through the many and varied programs and support networks it offers. An integrated, student-centred curriculum is implemented throughout the school by caring, dedicated and enthusiastic teachers who bring warmth, imagination and integrity to teaching and learning. Although a small school, we have a strong Creative and Performing Arts program which includes whole school and performance choirs and a recorder ensemble. We have strong environmental programs running which include a Kitchen Garden, orchard and chickens. The produce we collect and grow is used in our fortnightly Kids in the Kitchen program, where students plan, budget and cook healthy and delicious meals for the school. Our school promotes and inspires individuals to reach their potential in an inclusive and supportive environment, to create future global citizens.

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.
