Welcome to Pumicestone State School's website. At Pumicestone our school is the learning hub of our community. This school has an environment with caring and supportive staff, students, parents and community members.
Our motto “ Shaping our Tomorrows" is strongly evident.
This is underpinned by our core values
- We Nurture
- We Challenge
- We Care
We work together in partnership with parents/carers and students to support children in achieving their full potential.
At Pumicestone we believe that learning is a life-long process and occurs best within a supportive, stimulating and challenging environment which develops self-esteem and recognises students' individual needs and abilities. Productive partnerships involving honest communication and constructive feedback between the home, teachers and students, are essential to quality learning outcomes.
We have a strong focus on every student succeeding within a supportive framework of high expectations. Pumicestone State School has built a reputation as a caring, high-achieving school, with excellent educational opportunities, including a quality curriculum, high behaviour standards and a commitment to continuing improvement and lifelong learning. We aim to provide your child with rich and rewarding learning experiences that will lead and support them as they grow.
I am privileged to lead a team of highly professional staff, who work diligently to provide an environment which supports each and every student to reach their full potential. We explicitly measure success and progress regularly. We possess a reflective culture where regular data on achievements, and progress of individual students are used to make continual judgements about the effectiveness of teaching, curriculum and to make adjustments to learning programs.
Our school community values kindness and respect. Staff members model these traits to students and families. We explicitly teach, expect and acknowledge students for treating each other and other school community members in the way they wish to be treated.
Please contact us if you would like to learn more about our wonderful school. I look forward to meeting you and your family and welcoming you into our school community.
