Abercorn State School is a quality small school catering for the diverse needs of children from Preparatory Year through to Year 7. The school was established in 1927.
In 2012 the school will be fortunate to have two part-time Principals. Rebecca Scholl will drop back to 5 days per fortnight after having a baby girl in 2011. Charmaine Symes will cover the other days.
Due to an increase in enrolments, the school will also receive extra teaching time. Charmaine will cover some of this time, along with Kellie Smith.
Janette O'Sullivan works as a full-time teacher aide, and Diane Kerle works two days per week.
Kristine Dingle is our adminstration officer, Kim Pointon is our cleaner and bus driver, and Gene Pointon keeps our schools grounds in terrific order.
Students receive HPE, Japanese and Music lessons from teachers based in Monto. Mrs Narelle Galloway provides learning support once a fortnight.
The school also access to an experienced Speech Pathologist, Guidance Officer and other specialists when needed.
