Greenacre Public School is located in the Bankstown area of Sydney and serves a multicultural community with 98% of the students coming to school with language backgrounds other than English.
A large school, it is able to offer many educational opportunities across a wide range of educational areas. It has classes for those students with different learning styles (an IM class and two IO classes) and for those students who are academically gifted (an OC class). In addition to the basic skills of literacy and numeracy, which continue to be important focuses within the school, public speaking and debating, student leadership and sport are highlighted.
Our school is highly regarded within the local community. This is the result of the hard work of committed teachers over a number of years; the efforts of parents who support the school and its programs; the work of a very active group of parents and community members who engage in the P&C (Parents and Citizens Association) and School Council; and the result of hard work by the students in their classrooms, on the sporting fields, in choirs, drama events, the performing arts, chess competitions, debating, public speaking and so much more.
