Plattsburg Public School

Welcome to Plattsburg Public School, a prestigious establishment located in the suburb of Wallsend in Newcastle, New South Wales. With a rich history dating back to 1865, we are proud to have been providing quality education to our students for over a century.

As a primary school, we cater to students from Kindergarten to Year 6, offering a comprehensive curriculum that focuses on academic excellence, personal growth, and holistic development. Our dedicated and experienced teaching staff create a nurturing and inclusive learning environment, ensuring that every child feels supported and valued.

At Plattsburg Public School, we believe in the importance of parental involvement in a child's education. That's why we host regular information sessions for parents and caregivers, providing an opportunity to engage with our school community and gain valuable insights into our educational approach. Our Kindergarten Parent Information Session, held from 4pm to 5pm, is a fantastic opportunity for parents and caregivers to discover the exciting and educational activities we offer for their young ones.

We are proud to be a part of Education Week, an annual celebration of NSW public education that highlights the remarkable achievements of our schools, teachers, and students. It is a time for us to showcase the incredible work happening within our school community and recognize the dedication and commitment of our staff and students.

As an institution that values collaboration and transparency, we actively seek feedback from parents and carers. The Department of Education has shared a draft plan for NSW public education, and we encourage parents and carers to provide their valuable input and help shape the future of our educational system. Your opinions matter, and we are committed to creating an inclusive and supportive environment for all.

We also acknowledge and pay our respects to the traditional custodians of the land on which our school stands. We recognize the significance of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures and their ongoing connection to the land. We pay our respects to Elders, both past and present, and strive to create a culturally respectful and inclusive environment for all members of our school community.
