Parkes Public is an excellent educational facility for children attending Kindergarten through to Year 6. Our school motto ‘Strive for Success’ reflects the attitude of our students and staff towards all aspects of our school, including academic growth, extra-curricular efforts and personal goals. 

We offer a balanced curriculum of academic, cultural and sporting programs with a strong focus on the core subjects of English and Mathematics. All children receive personalised, individualised educational opportunities. 

Our enthusiastic and dedicated staff operate under the ‘School Excellence Framework’ and the ‘What Works Best in Practice’ guidelines, which are supported by ongoing professional development, and innovative practices are embraced.

Our school maintains a strong wellbeing focus, with our core values being respect, responsibility and safety.
