About the school

Belmont Public School is dedicated to providing a high-quality education from Kindergarten to Year 6, striving to ensure that every student thrives and feels a sense of belonging. Upon entering the school, one is immediately struck by its secure and aesthetically pleasing environment, which promotes educational excellence. The school is distinguished by its commitment to integrating technology into the curriculum; each classroom is equipped with interactive whiteboards, serving to engage students actively in learning. This focus on technology has positioned the school as a training hub for teachers from neighbouring institutions.

The school places significant emphasis on literacy and numeracy, applying effective teaching methods, such as the L3 (Language, Literacy and Learning) program that has helped students exceed regional literacy targets. A diverse teaching staff, comprising both experienced educators and novices, contributes to a unique learning atmosphere, especially given the school's large percentage of Aboriginal students, which fosters a deeper understanding of Aboriginal culture and learning styles.

Extracurricular activities flourish at Belmont Public School, with opportunities for students to participate in creative and performing arts, sports teams, and various competitions, including the Premier’s Reading Challenge and the Spelling Bee. The extensive school grounds feature beautiful sporting fields and a multi-purpose court, alongside modern classroom facilities and a recently completed covered outdoor learning area that accommodates all weather conditions.

Belmont Public School is supported by an active Parents & Citizens committee, which plays a vital role in governance and resource provision. The school aims to nurture its students into confident, resilient, and organised learners, embodying the motto ‘Free Spirits Striving to Achieve.’
