Daceyville Public School

Daceyville Public School is a community centred public school serving a diverse area of East Sydney. There is a current enrolment of approximately 280 students, including approximately 65% of students from a language background other than English. The school has a strong commitment to providing students with rigorous, meaningful and future-focused learning programs that enable all students to maximise their potential. We work in partnership with families and community organisations to provide students with authentic contexts for the learning and the opportunity to see the impact of learning beyond the classroom. The school has three core values: Respect; Safety and Lifelong Learning; that underpin all aspects of programs and practices. Highly skilled teachers work collaboratively to design rich programs of learning. The school has an extensive creative and performing arts program which is highly valued by the school community, including a school Band Program, dance groups, choir, drumming club and art club. A range of opportunities are provided for students to participate in performances, competitions and activities in the local area and beyond. The school community is committed to engaging students in environmental learning programs and collaborate to enhance the school environment through shared projects and activities. This includes the bush tucker garden, frog pond, composting area, chicken coop and outdoor learning areas. Our Wellbeing processes ensure that all members of the wider school community are supported effectively so that students are able to focus on learning and make the most of their time at school. Daceyville is proud to represent the values of public education by providing a supportive, nurturing and rich learning environment for the local community.

Maintenance

To ensure the safety, reliability and longevity of our schools, every school across NSW receives maintenance. The Department undertakes preventative and routine maintenance every year, and repairs as needed. 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.
