"Picnic Point Public School has been such a wonderful part of our family’s life. The teachers are caring, passionate, and experienced - you can really see and feel how much they love what they do and how dedicated they are to the kids.
There are so many opportunities for students to get involved - from sports and performing arts to public speaking, school band and gardening club - and it’s amazing to see the confidence and joy it brings them.
The P&C works so hard to fundraise and support the school, and the office and support staff keep everything running like a well-oiled machine - they’re always so helpful and organised.
Our eldest has now moved on to high school, and we’re so grateful for how well-prepared he was. The high school readiness and guidance he received at Picnic Point made the transition so much easier. Our youngest is now in Year 5 and absolutely loves being part of the school - he’s thriving, building great friendships, and enjoying everything the school has to offer.
It’s truly a caring, supportive school community that gives every child a great start." - Tju Family
