Tallong Public School

Tallong Public School was established in 1865 and continues to serve a small rural community. Family values and beliefs, quality teaching and the latest in information technology enhance educational outcomes for all students. Challenging literacy, numeracy and technology programs have been developed to increase skills and motivate learners. Tallong children are encouraged to view education as a life long learning experience. Our school is a friendly,caring environment, the staff are trusted partners in learning and everyone tries. The school community ensures that our children are successful in fulfilling their potential. Parents are also actively involved in their education and well being. A specialist music teacher is employed to deliver a comprehensive music program, with students performing annually at the Opera House. Senior students also participate in the Goulburn Schools Choral Festival. Inter-school activity days promote skills development, socialisation and motivation. Sport and Personal Development/Health lessons promote Tallong students to be happy and live healthy lifestyles.

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.
