## About

Wentworth Public School has proudly served the Wentworth community for over one hundred and fifty years. Located on the western banks of the Darling River, near its junction with the Murray River, the school accommodates students from a semi-arid region, where significant distances are travelled for education. Students typically walk or bike to school, with some travelling by bus from nearby farming areas.

The vision of Wentworth Public School emphasises creating a happy, safe, and engaging learning environment that promotes self-regulation, enthusiasm, and independence among students. The school offers a diverse range of programs tailored to the individual needs and interests of its students, including a Kitchen-Garden initiative and a specialist music program, while maintaining a strong focus on literacy and numeracy through personalised learning. The school supports positive behaviours for learning, aiming for both the academic and emotional development of students.

A commitment to inclusivity is evident, with the school receiving additional funding to support Aboriginal students and children from low socio-economic backgrounds. Collaborations with local schools in the Murray-Darling group and the nearby preschool further enhance the educational experience, ensuring that Wentworth Public School is an integral part of its wider community. The school aims to engage all stakeholders in providing quality educational opportunities, reinforcing its role as a cornerstone of learning in the Wentworth area.

## Mission

At Wentworth we value respect, safety, and persistence to support all learners to be successful.

Motto: "Respect - Safety - Persistence. We help every student to learn, grow and succeed."
