Welcome to Jasper Road Public School
In partnership with our staff, I warmly welcome you to Jasper Road Public School. In 2017, we celebrated our 50th anniversary of successfully educating children in The Hills. Our school is a place of educational excellence where your child will be nurtured to reach their personal best in all areas of learning and life.
Developing Citizens of the Future
Jasper Road Public School is committed to creating a quality learning environment in which all students, staff and community members feel valued, supported and safe.
Students will be resilient, confident and future-focussed, equipped with the knowledge and skills to become empowered life-long learners.
We are committed to providing inclusive, differentiated and innovative learning experiences setting high expectations for every student.
At Jasper Road, our teachers ensure that mandatory curriculum requirements are met and each student is taught using a variety of strategies, catering for individual learning styles and stages of development. We are strongly committed to providing multi-cultural, Aboriginal and environmental perspectives across all teaching programs. Jasper Road hosts a regional Support Unit within five classes, providing support to students with physical disabilities, a moderate intellectual disability and/or Autism. These students integrate with mainstream students in many academic, social and sporting opportunities.
A Dynamic and Supportive School Community
Our school enjoys the high level involvement and support from our parents and volunteers. Our parent bodies meet regularly to discuss the school’s targets in learning and to assist with fund-raising, to maximise the learning, environmental and technology resources our students can access. We actively encourage parents/carers to support the school’s teaching and learning programs.
A Strong Focus on The Creative Arts, Sport and Fitness Will Benefit Your Child
Students are encouraged to develop skills in self-expression and creativity through our outstanding Creative Arts programs. Opportunities to gain competence are provided in class Music programs, Dance and an extensive Band Program, utilising external tutors. Students are provided a range of performing opportunities within the school as well as through external concerts, school competitions and Arts Festivals.
Students are encouraged to develop fitness and Sport skills as well as an active, healthy lifestyle through weekly individual, group and Primary Schools Sports Association (P.S.S.A.) team opportunities in both Summer and Winter competitions.
