Holsworthy High School
Holsworthy High is a comprehensive high school which operates in a very firm, friendly environment. There is a strong discipline and welfare policy which develops both teachers and students to become empowered to take responsibility for their actions.The school offers a broad range of educational experiences allowing students to be exposed to a range of diverse subjects. However we focus on literacy and numeracy to ensure a solid education base. The school acknowledges the unique qualities of all students and provides a range of subjects which challenge all interests and abilities. The school has about 25 percent of students whose families work in the Defence Forces. This means our student population is very transient which interrupts their learning. The school is a member of the Holsworthy Community of Schools which provides strong support in the transition from primary to secondary schooling. The school provides strong support in the development students talents with a diverse range of activities such as public speaking, sport and a strong Student Council. The community is actively involved through the P and C and they provide input into our planning.
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.
