Soldiers Point Public School
Soldiers Point Public School opened its doors in 1947 and has successfully met the challenge of providing an education for children in the local area during that time. The school's Mission Statement, 'Our school community is committed to providing a supportive learning environment which promotes success and equity', sits at the heart of our learning code and is supported by four guiding principles: Promote quality teaching in a quality learning environment, Promote collaboration through open communication, Value a spirit of respect and tolerance for each individual, and Instil lifelong learning and promote healthy lifestyle choices. Soldiers Point Public School is in the Port Stephens area approximately 50km from Newcastle. The school's population, which currently stands at around 345, is steadily growing. The school has fourteen classes, including an Opportunity Class (OC) for students in Years 5 and 6. Soldiers Point is part of the Hunter / Central Coast Region. Soldiers Point is not a focus school.
