Punchbowl is a small, family orientated school, situated in a suburb five kilometres from the centre of Launceston, Tasmania in a lovely natural bush setting. We have an enrolment of 300 from Kindergarten to grade 6. Its scenic setting is complemented by an attractive and stimulating playground environment. Punchbowl Primary School has a climate and environment that optimises the teaching, learning and playing conditions. Our curriculum is built on the foundations of active partnerships, thinking and communicating and has programs that include experiences in all curriculum areas. Our curriculum is designed to move children from being dependent to independent to that of interdependence. We formally teach children how to take responsibility for their own learning and behaviour. We provide a curriculum that strives for excellence and teaches children to act autonomously and become worthwhile contributors to our Launceston society.
