Tahmoor Public School
Tahmoor Public School was established in 1928 and is situated at the southern end of a growing semi-rural town set in the southern highlands half way between Campbelltown and Bowral. The combination of modern and original buildings is surrounded by an expansive playground and award winning gardens. Two computer labs, an Opportunity Class, children's art gallery, hall and a well-equipped library are all important features of the school. The original teacher's residence has been converted into a Teachers' Centre which is used as a venue for professional development by teachers and community groups from all over the district. At Tahmoor Public School we provide a secure, caring and child-centred environment where students are given opportunities to excel and to fulfil their full potential while developing emotional resilience. The values of respect, kindness and co-operation are a priority. The school has high expectations of both staff and students. Students are encouraged to achieve high academic standards and staff provide a wide variety of teaching styles to facilitate student engagement. Staff and parents work co-operatively to develop the full potential of every child.
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.
