At Sutherland Public School our students prosper in a warm, supportive and safe learning environment. We have an effective welfare and discipline program with a focus on social skills, decision making and citizenship. We value individual differences and lead each child to appreciate his/her own talents and those of others.
Opportunities are provided for the development of leadership skills and students
are inspired through the use of stimulating activities and materials across the curriculum. We offer a creative arts program that includes dance, art and music, fostering the individual talents and interests of each student. We regularly participate in major performances.
Our sports program builds on a tradition of achievement. We provide daily physical education for all and run successful sporting teams coached by very experience staff. participation in sport builds teamwork, confidence an leadership in our students.
As a parent of a child starting Kindergarten we would like to invite you to our Orientation Day and Kinder Transition sessions.
Orientation Information Session
During our Orientation Information Session you will meet our Principal, Mrs Leah Woolley, our Teachers and other members of our school community.
You will have an opportunity to see our school and ask any questions you have about your child starting school.
We know that your child's education and happiness are very important to you, so we look forward to you joining us on these days.
What is Kinder Transition?
Kinder Transition is a kindergarten program that allows students to meet teachers, familiarize themselves with the school and find out about the types of activities the children will be doing in Kindergarten.
When children attend this program they settle into the first few weeks of school with greater ease, because they gain positive memories of the school and become keen and enthusiastic to attend.
When to enrol
Enrolment can be made at any time during the preceding year. Children can apply to enrol if they turn five before July 31 in the year of their expected enrolment.
Please bring your child's original birth certificate, immunisation certificate and proof of residence (lease or bill) when you apply to enrol.
