Castlereagh Public School's statement of purpose is to recognise and strive for: excellence in academic achievement; positive aesthetic, personal and social attitudes in a small rural school where whole staff pastoral care can be exercised for all pupils; a sense of belonging, a secure and caring environment enable children to establish self esteem; sensitivity to others and the environment is enhanced; where community participation is valued.
Our school motto "Courtesy and Good Citizenship" reflects this statement. In this school's semi rural situation, we strive to enhance students' overall confidence and develop each student as a unique person and a valued member of this community. Students are encouraged to develop self-reliance, responsibility for personal welfare in a caring and supportive attitude towards each other.
