Why families choose us

"When life felt like I was standing alone, the staff stepped up and became the village I never knew I needed. They didn’t just show up for their students; they became my family, offering the kind of support and care that went beyond their job."  a parent of Carcoar Public School

A strong start

We help every child feel safe, included and confident from their very first day. Our weekly playgroup and Transition to School program supports this from before school even begins.

Support for every family

Our teachers and learning and wellbeing support teams work with our families. We co-design plans that help students learn in the way that works best for them.

High quality education

We offer our students a wide range of subjects and opportunities. This empowers them to learn, develop skills, and discover their passions.

Easy to access

Located in the small but vibrant village of Carcoar, our school is easy to access by a 10minute car drive from Blayney. This makes every day at school more convenient for our families.

"Carcoar is a place where kids learn, and teachers teach! It is a special place that not many people know about, but it is loved and so are the teachers and students. Carcoar Public is a place for everyone!” — Lawson, Year 3
