Support for every family

Our teachers and learning and wellbeing support teams work with our families. We co-design plans that help students learn in the way that works best for them.

Blackett Public Preschool is now open!

We are excited to welcome our youngest learners, families, and our new preschool teachers and educators to Blackett Public Preschool.

Our fee-free preschool offers a high-quality, play-based learning program for children in the year before kindergarten. Our preschool operates on the same days and hours as our school and operates across two learning spaces, with capacity for up to 40 children each day.

We are currently accepting Expressions of Interest (EOIs) for eligible children turning 4 years old on or before 31 July 2026.

Visit our preschool webpage to learn more about enrolment, submit an Expression of Interest, or book a tour.

Principal's message

At Blackett Public School, our main focus is on student learning, ensuring every student has access to a wide and engaging variety of learning opportunities, no matter their background. Our students engage with a high-quality curriculum supported by explicit teaching, along with strong programs that promote wellbeing and smooth transitions.

Blackett Public School is proud to be one of the locations for the 100 new Public Preschools. We offer four Inclusive Education classes that support students with diverse intellectual, physical, and emotional needs. Our committed staff work collaboratively with ongoing curiosity and a strong sense of urgency to make a positive difference and maximise learning for every student each day.

Aboriginal Education is both a priority and a shared commitment at Blackett Public School. We value diversity, promote reconciliation, and strive to provide fair outcomes, opportunities, and experiences for our Aboriginal students.

We deeply value our partnerships with parents and the wider community, recognising them as essential to our school’s continued success. Together, we are building a bright future for all our learners. I encourage you to explore our website and learn more about what makes our school unique.
