What we offer

Our Support classes cater for students with moderate to high learning and support needs including students with : Intellectual disability, autism, sensory impairment. 

The SLSO assist classroom teachers to address the educational needs of students with a disability and learning difficulty. Parents or caregivers have a vital role to play working in partnership with the support staff by  discussing and having an input in the planning for their child's needs.

The school principal, in consultation with the school's Learning Support Team, will assist you to find the right schooling option for your child, taking into account your choice, your child's specific additional learning needs and proximity to local specialist services.

At Blacktown North PS we consider gardening an essential part of learning. Each class has a designated garden time to plant fruit, vegetables and herbs for our community. Gardening is a great way to get the students active and learn how to be self-sufficient and eat healthy. 

Studies show that gardening promotes physical health, mental health through relaxation and satisfaction, and better nutrition. Gardening can indeed feed the body, mind and spirit! And thats important for a sustainable society. By creating a space where we can reconnect with Nature, we can provide ourselves the means to heal our mind, body and spirit, and a means heal the planet also. When we grow gardens, we grow life, which we care for, nurture and partake in.

A worm farm has many environmental benefits, including recycling food scraps, minimising food waste that goes to landfill and creating natural garden fertiliser. Worms create tunnels in our soil to enable water, air and nutrients to circulate keeping our earth healthy. Teaching our students the benefits of a worm farm and how to look after one, gives them a strong understanding of environmental care at an early age.

We promote multiculturalism by forming an understanding through educating, discussing and taking part in cultural traditions from all over the globe.

Happy children are healthy children.

Every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday we provide our students with free breakfast.  Children can come in as early as 8.15 for a healthy breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day as it breaks the overnight fasting period.  It replenishes your supply of glucose to boost your energy levels and alertness, whilst also providing other essential nutrients required for good health.

Every Monday we hold a Playgroup at 8.45am- 10.45am for children upto age 4. Parents must acompany their children. This is a great way for parents to meet other parents and help their children develop early learning skills.

Later in the year, every Tuesday and Wednesday we hold a transition program. This program is designed to develop the necessary skills for students to be successful in kindergarten. If you wish your chid to attend this program, they must be enrolled at Blacktown North PS and have a interview with the Principal before acceptance.

Our school runs a Kiss and Drop Zone where students are dropped off every morning and picked up every afternoon. This has been put in place to ensure the safety of our students. Teachers and SLSO staff will be assisting at Kiss and Drop. All cars leaving the school car park must turn left. This will make the traffic move faster.

Working with children to keep a tidy playground is an engaging way to teach young Australians about the responsible disposal of rubbish, resource recovery and the repercussions of rubbish dumped irresponsibly in the local environment. Teachers and students work together to keep a tidy asphalt area, grass area and garden area at the school to promote hygiene.
