Charlestown Public School (172 enrolments, 9 Aboriginal students and 14% students with English as a Second Language background) has a long and proud history of providing education to the greater Charlestown area. The professional and caring staff encourage excellence in behaviour, attitude and performance from all students at all times.
The school is well–resourced and has an outstanding range of programs to challenge students across all Key Learning Areas with a strong focus on the development of literacy and numeracy skills. A wide range of cultural and sporting opportunities are provided at the school. We have a school choir, a dance group and a ukulele group. We participate in Star Struck, the local public speaking and debating competitions and a range of sporting gala days throughout the year. Charlestown Public School is a “Kidsmatter” school. As such we place a strong emphasis on programs that promote positive mental health and increase students' skills in the area of social and emotional development.
Our students are happy at school and know that with effort, persistence and resilience they can all achieve to a high individual level. A positive relationship exists between the school, parents and the broader community, which enhances the educational opportunities for all students. Charlestown Public school is proud to be known as a happy, caring, vibrant school.
