About the school
Condong Public School is a co-educational primary school that has proudly served the Condong community since 1888. Currently, the school is being rebuilt after extensive flood damage in 2022, with an aim to provide state-of-the-art facilities and a modern learning environment for all students. The school’s mission is to support a growing community by delivering high-quality education within a positive and inclusive atmosphere.
Educational Approach
The school is dedicated to fostering the intellectual, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual development of every student. Teachers uphold high expectations, ensuring that students and their families have a clear understanding of essential skills and progression pathways. Written reports and regular discussions help maintain a collaborative environment that values both student learning and parental involvement.
Community and Values
Condong Public School emphasises the importance of strong partnerships between home and school. The welfare and discipline policies promote students' responsibility for their own behaviours and support strong communication channels between the school and families. The school embraces diversity and aims to create a safe and nurturing community where every child feels valued and respected.

While the new school is under construction, Condong Public School is operating in South Murwillumbah, providing tailored learning support to meet various student needs. The diverse curriculum includes a wide range of subjects and opportunities, preparing students to become dynamic global citizens who are well-rounded and engaged in their communities. The staff at Condong Public School is committed to inspiring and equipping students for success both inside and outside the classroom.
