WARWICK Central State School is celebrating an excellent report for its curriculum, teaching, learning and discipline audit with high and/or outstanding scores in all domains.
“The report is available on our website, along with our annual report on the activities of our school. Central truly rules!” principal Christine Dolley said.
With approximately 40 staff including specialist teachers, teacher aides, administration, ground staff and cleaners Mrs Dolley said Warwick Central State School staff included committed, caring, hard-working professionals who strive to provide the best education possible for the most important members of their community – their students.
“We have 12 open, vibrant, well-resourced classrooms, all with reverse cycle air conditioning, interactive whiteboards, quick, effective internet access, the availability of class sets of laptops and tablet technology and efficient, enthusiastic teacher aides who assist our diligent, energetic teaching staff,” she said.
“We have experienced and dedicated administration staff who are always keen to answer queries and concerns and provide solutions promptly and effectively.
“With 292 students on site, we have an experienced head of curriculum who is a very experienced classroom teacher and has worked as a small school principal, a support teacher and in the very demanding field of distance education.
“This very capable individual Janet Forbes is also the behaviour support teacher and we are very fortunate to have this resource available on site every day to support our very successful Central RULES (Respect, Understanding, Learning, Effort, Safety) school-wide Positive Behaviour Program.
“We are a tier two school in this program, recognition for the embedded nature of Central RULES in everything we do at our school. “
Warwick Central State School was established in 1875, and will celebrate its 140th birthday in 2015.
It provides a comprehensive, balanced education for students from prep to year six.
It also runs a playgroup each Monday afternoon in its beautiful new air-conditioned library and its very well-regarded PIPPAs (Parents in Pre Prep at School) program in semester two of every year.
“We believe that “it takes a village to raise a child” and, as such, we strive to involve our local community and related services in all that we do,” Mrs Dolley said.
“Each Monday, after assembly, when progress and success are celebrated and recognised, we have a Principal’s Prattle session for parents, carers and community members which includes morning tea and information sharing about academic programs, support plans, new initiatives, and Education Queensland updates and developments.”
