Since 2011, the Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) Program has been developed and implemented within the school with positive outcomes for students, staff and community. Nar-un-bah, the SaCC (School as Community Centre) is an integral part of the school and allows families to access both service provision and inter-agency support.

Opportunities exist for students in Sport, Creative and Performing Arts Groups, debating and inter-school sport. The school is supported by an active P&C which works closely with the school. The Little Squirts Transition to School program for pre-schoolers was implemented each Thursday in 2016 and proved a great success. Fennell Bay Public School is successful in its implementation of a safe, caring and inclusive learning environment in which all students have the opportunity to succeed under the guidance of an excellent school team.
