Stories and highlights

There's always something to celebrate at our school! From exciting events to proud moments and everyday wins, here are some of our highlights.

A year at our school

We hold regular garden days where students get the opportunity to maintain our school garden. Our keen gardeners Mrs Burgess and Mrs Turner run these days where students, plant, trim, pick, water and even complete garden artworks.

Our playground has a nature play area where students love to create things from the natural environment. There are many opportunities for imaginative play like creating houses, shops or defending against the invading make-believe creatures.

Our infants play area contains cubby houses, fairy gardens and a boat. This is a very popular area for our younger students to use their imagination and learn important collaboration and communication skills.

"We just wanted to reach out and say how grateful we are to everyone at Charlestown East Public School. Making the decision to switch schools so early on in the year was very daunting but we know we have made the right decision. Our child is growing week-by-week and credit must be given to all at Charlestown East Public School. We are so grateful for the extra effort and time that the teacher gave our child. He is learning at a rate of knots and his confidence is growing exponentially. Thank you so much for everything you’ve done and everything you’re doing. You are a credit to the public schooling system.” — a parent of Charlestown East Public School
