Bardia Public School

Bardia Public School is a rapidly growing school located in a burgeoning urban growth corridor in the south west of Sydney. At the commencement of 2019 the staff and students of Bardia Public School took occupation of fabulous state-of-the-art facilities. Traditional box-like classrooms have been replaced by innovative learning environments (ILEs). These flexible learning environments allow for a wide range of teaching and learning modalities. At Bardia Public School we understand that if our students are to be successful adults in this rapidly changing world they must be adept exponents of what are being described as 21st century skills: collaboration, creativity, critical thinking and problem solving. Unlike some schools that have gone down a similar path, at Bardia Public School explicit instruction (traditional teaching), guided practise and collaborative learning are given equal emphasis. We are excited by initial evidence that suggests our students are not only learning at a faster rate than is usual, they are developing as self-regulated learners. Students such as ours are well placed to take on the challenges of high school and beyond. The physical and emotional wellbeing of our students have a strong focus at Bardia Public School. We have been very successful in creating a caring but challenging environment where children are encouraged to maximise their potential. The staff and the community take great pride in working together to provide a holistic education for our students by fostering academic, artistic and sporting achievement. Bardia Public School also boasts a Camp Australia-run Before and After School Care.
