Position Information:

Megalong Public School is nestled in the beautiful Megalong Valley.

Our small rural school has traditionally provided public education for over 131 years to the local farming families of the valley.

Our school is set on two acres of pristine eucalypts with an abundance of wildlife, in a protected setting surrounded by the spectacular scenery of the Blue Mountains Escarpment.

Our school currently has 8 students enrolled. Our students range in age from Year 1 to Year 5. In 2024 a Kindergarten student will be enrolled.

Our student-centred, personalised programs have continued to provide a learning field that enriches and advances every student who attends. 'Each student is known, valued and cared for'.

Every student gains a sense of recognition of leadership, positive and improved literacy and numeracy, wellbeing, and a feeling of close community and extended family friendships due to attending a small school like Megalong Public School.

Our school provides a nurturing and supportive learning environment valuing a strong partnership between students, staff, parents, and the wider community.

There is a high degree of family and community involvement across all school activities, which is highly valued.
