## About

Albury West Public School provides a comprehensive and high-quality education for students from Kindergarten to Year 6. The school focuses on developing the personal, social, emotional, and academic growth of all students, with a particular emphasis on maximising achievement in literacy and numeracy. This is achieved through a staged approach to curriculum delivery that caters to individual needs and interests. As a member of the Crossing Point Learning Community, the school collaborates with neighbouring public schools, Albury High, and Charles Sturt University to enhance educational opportunities.

The school's commitment to support all learners includes programmes for gifted and talented students, as well as additional assistance for those with identified learning needs. Key initiatives such as 'Focus on Reading', 'Building Numeracy Leadership', and 'Count Me In Too' provide targeted support, ensuring all students can thrive academically. Albury West Public School is also a Visible Learning school, promoting effective learning habits through a consistent teaching language among educators.

Community engagement is a vital aspect of the school, with active parental involvement and programmes designed to foster student welfare. The Positive Behaviour for Learning program promotes the school’s values of respect, responsibility, and care. Unique features include student leadership initiatives, buddy programs, and technological integration, with interactive whiteboards and iPads available in all classrooms.

Additionally, the 'Little Gems' programme offers a nurturing transition to Kindergarten for children who lack preschool access, helping them adjust to school life. With a strong focus on individual needs and a rich array of extracurricular activities, Albury West Public School encourages students to achieve their personal best in a supportive and inclusive environment.
