Through its diverse curriculum, Lugarno Public School contributes significantly to the development of skills in areas we, as a community, regard as crucial to the development of responsible citizens and lifelong learners. These areas include the creative and performing arts, sporting programs, student leadership, positive social interaction and technology. Lugarno Public School’s technology programs are supported by a well-resourced school, wireless capability and the implementation of future focused pedagogy.

Programs and policies are developed, implemented and continuously evaluated to meet the needs of every student.

The school’s purpose is to ensure that each student’s overall performance and successful transition through primary school is based on a well developed foundation of skills, goals and positive attitudes to learning for life. The school has a solid academic, performing arts and sporting tradition, with emphasis on literacy and numeracy, information technology and student welfare.

Care, courtesy, consideration and communication are the basis of the school rules. The school values responsibility and focuses strongly on the right of each student to be safe and happy in a caring and stimulating environment.

Our students showcase their performing arts talents through the school’s dance groups and band. Our sporting program includes inter-school sports competitions, swimming, athletics, cross country and gymnastics programs. We actively celebrate student participation and acknowledge each students’ achievement.

The use of technology is integrated into our lessons and also our homework, helping us to articulate our vision of creating future focused learners.

We support new students at our school
