Weilmoringle Public School

Weilmoringle Public School is situated in far north western NSW and services a small community of approximately 60 people of whom about 90% are of Aboriginal background. The core values of the school are to provide a happy, safe, respectful and stimulating environment catering for the individual learning needs of the students. The school places a strong emphasis on literacy and numeracy and is supported by the Country Area Program and Priority Schools Program. The school continues to incorporate the Reading 2 Learn strategies into its literacy programs and aims to provide children with as many opportunities to participate in extra-curricular activities such as swimming, athletics, sports and technology camps and whole-school excursions. Students of Weilmoringle Public School regularly qualify for district and regional athletics, cross country and swimming carnivals. Our school enjoys the support of the wider school community and encourages community members to visit the school at every opportunity including end of term assemblies, fetes, Parents and Citizens Association meetings, in-class tutoring and community barbeques. All students are given equal opportunities to achieve to the best of their abilities in all subject areas.

Maintenance

To ensure the safety, reliability and longevity of our schools, every school across NSW receives maintenance.

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.
