## About

Darlington Point Public School is a small rural school that provides a broad range of educational opportunities within a supportive learning environment. The school predominantly serves students from the local town, with about 33% of the student population identifying as Indigenous. It has a strong focus on quality teaching and learning, enhanced by access to various programs such as the Priority Schools Program and the Quality Teaching Indigenous program.

## Aboriginal Education Program
A standout feature of Darlington Point Public School is its comprehensive Aboriginal education program. This initiative has been developed over the years and incorporates the teaching of the Wiradjuri language for students in Kindergarten through to Year 6. The program aims to foster a strong connection to cultural knowledge in both students and the community. To support this, the school has created a Bush garden that includes a Bora ring and an outdoor learning area, further enriching the educational experience.

## Community Partnership
Darlington Point Public School has established robust partnerships with the local community, becoming a focal point for the township. This collaboration has enhanced the educational experience and provided additional resources for students, reinforcing the school's commitment to being an integral part of the Darlington Point community.
