Our School Vision 2018-2020
At Taren Point Public School, we believe in creating an environment that is engaging, inclusive and nurturing to develop safe, respectful learners. We aim to inspire students to develop a passion for learning and actively strive for success in all endeavours. We are committed to ensuring all students become successful, confident and creative lifelong learners.
OUR SCHOOL PLEDGE 'We are the students of Taren Point Public School. We are proud of ourselves and our school.
We pledge to work hard, play fair and be kind to each other. We are the 'Pride of the Point'.
You might think it is a long time away, but in just over 6 years time (2025), Taren Point Public School turns 100! To ensure a celebration to remember, we are building a database of former students and friends of Taren Point PS. If you would like to be included, please complete the contact form. We are also very keen to collect any photos of the school that our community may have. Feel free to scan and email the photos with a brief description or pop in to the school office for us to scan them for you (on the spot). As we get closer to the time, we would love to form a committee to assist in planning the festivities, so if this is something you would like to be a part of, please don't be shy and let us know. We would be grateful if you could spread the word about our initiative :) A Diamond Jubilee booklet (and more) was created in 1985. It is attached for your reading pleasure.

Showing Gratitude
Gratitude Week is an annual school celebration, a week of activities that encourage our students to be mindful and show gratitude. Students participate in meditation, yoga, song writing, journal writing, rock painting, music therapy and more. This year we will be incorporating 'Grandparents' Day' as we are grateful for our families.
A short video was put together from our celebrations last year to highlight the importance of gratitude in our daily lives. Please enjoy....Link: http://bit.ly/2yNQIhH Important Dates for your Diary..... |

We acknowledge the traditional custodians of country throughout Australia and recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and community. We pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging, for they hold the memories, the traditions, the culture and hopes of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples across the nation.
