Taree West Public School
Taree West PS is a PP2 school which has a student population which has increased over the past three years to be in excess of 500. The school holds a proud reputation as a quality school within the town. Teamwork, Welfare, Performance and Scholarship are the foundation qualities of the school. The school motto is 'High Endeavour' and to that purpose achievement is high in both the academic and sporting arenas whilst providing a curriculum that is balanced and engaging for all students. A stimulating and challenging learning environment is complemented by a dedicated teaching staff and supportive parent group. New buildings and facilities due for completion in 2010 will greatly assist the implementation and operation of essential programs in creative, technology and student welfare areas of the school curriculum. A strong focus in both numeracy and literacy ensures National Assessment results are at pleasing levels. Parent volunteers assist classroom teachers in targeted literacy programs. Leadership is a key element of student welfare initiatives with many significant achievements recognised throughout the year. Taree West Public School is a vibrant learning centre.
