Why choose us?

Castle Cove Public School is a vibrant Kindergarten to Year 6 primary school at the heart of Castle Cove, where children are known, valued and encouraged to shine. We are proud to offer the opportunities of a dynamic public school within a welcoming and connected community. Diversity is celebrated, individuality is valued and every child is encouraged to discover their strengths, develop a love of learning and achieve their personal best.

At CCPS, learning goes far beyond the classroom. Our students benefit from specialist teaching in STEM and Creative and Performing Arts, bringing additional expertise, creativity and hands-on experiences into their school week. Students are encouraged to investigate, create, perform and solve real-world problems, building skills that prepare them for a rapidly changing world. We also have a strong culture of sport and physical activity, inspiring students to participate in carnivals, gala days and representative opportunities.

We believe every child deserves to be both supported and challenged. Our dedicated teachers and School Learning Support Officers provide targeted assistance for students who need additional support, while our Head of Inspire, High Potential and Gifted Education, leads opportunities to identify and nurture students with high potential. This means we can respond to students as individuals, helping them build on their strengths while supporting them in the areas where they need it most.

There is always something for students to be part of at Castle Cove. Sport, performing arts, leadership, STEM experiences and special interest clubs give children opportunities to discover new passions and develop their talents. Whole-school performances, end-of-year stage productions and specialised music workshops create memorable experiences that become an important part of their primary school years.

Most importantly, Castle Cove Public School is a community. Strong relationships between students, staff and families create a school where children feel they belong and where families are welcomed as valued partners in their education. Choosing CCPS means choosing a school that will encourage your child to explore, achieve and make the most of every opportunity. We would love to welcome your family and be part of your child’s primary school journey.

Our vision: Castle Cove Public School promotes a vibrant, inclusive learning community with a culture of excellence that builds all students' strengths and capabilities, preparing them to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world. We aim to develop in our students the ability to act with integrity and to thrive emotionally, mentally, spiritually and physically.
