Bennett Road Public School continues to pride itself on providing a quality public education since its establishment in October 1961.  Student learning programs in the school emphasis acquisition of skills in literacy, numeracy and technology; social learning in teamwork and personal health; and competency in problem solving, thinking and working together.

Learning is designed to match the needs of students, promote effort and achievement and assess student work against a benchmark.  The collection of evidence in classrooms is part of the school's commitment to excellence and innovation in teaching and learning.

During 2007 a number of initiative have been realised with benefits for all students in our school.  Both NSW and Australian government funds have become available to upgrade a toilet block, renew the covered walkways and some hard surfaces, complete the structured cabling to all classrooms, increase the number of laptop computers and construct a new covered outdoor learning area in 2008.

Other initiatives have involved our hardworking parents assisting in classrooms, sports events, gardening, canteen, uniform, library and resource materials and working with individual students.

Programs with our local cluster of Colyton schools has enhanced opportunities for students in science, sport, language and performing arts.  Teacher professional learning has been expanded through the Colyton Learning community through the Success for Boys program and values forum.
