## About

Shalvey Public School is located in western Sydney and serves the local community, having been established in 1974. The school prioritises delivering high-quality learning experiences, with a strong focus on literacy and numeracy, to ensure students develop into independent and contributing members of society. The school enjoys significant additional funding, which not only facilitates professional learning for teachers but also allows for the hiring of extra teaching and support staff, leading to smaller class sizes that enhance personalised learning.

As an Early Action for Success initiative school, Shalvey Public School has appointed an Instructional Leader, providing additional resources aimed at improving literacy and numeracy outcomes for students in Kindergarten to Year 2. The school offers a rich sporting and cultural program, which includes inter-school competitions, performance opportunities, and carnivals. The dedicated staff fosters a safe, caring community that values self-discipline and encourages student involvement in decision-making.

The school is culturally diverse, featuring a population of 24% Aboriginal students, 21% Pacific Islander students, and 45% from non-English speaking backgrounds. Recent refurbishment projects and the integration of modern technology, such as interactive whiteboards, contribute to an engaging learning environment. Additionally, Shalvey Public School operates a robust transition program for preschool-aged children, preparing them for entry into primary education.
