Northbourne Public School, opened at the start of 2021 and currently has an enrolment of 1950 students. Our enrolment numbers are rapidly growing with 90 percent of children having a non-English speaking background. Three Inclusive classes were established in 2022 with four more opening this year. The school features many learning spaces which include demountable classrooms along with flexible, innovative teaching and learning spaces designed to support collaboration, communication, deep inquiry and genuine understanding of subject matter.
