Welcome to Fernbrooke State School's website.
On behalf of the school and its community, I would like to welcome you and your family to Fernbrooke State School. I trust your stay with us will be a positive and rewarding experience.
Fernbrooke State School opened in 2017. Since its opening Fernbrooke State School has developed a positive reputation within the local and wider community. There is a strong focus at the school on academics, wellbeing, music and sporting areas. The current student enrolment is 1035, with students from Prep to Year 6.
The focus at Fernbrooke State School is always around improvement and 'doing and being our best'. Our community prides itself on our strong school culture, which provides students with a safe, caring and supportive environment, where students are provided with the best opportunity to learn and to be their best. Having pride in our GREAT school is something that students, staff and parent/carers are proud of!
School staff and parents/carers work closely together to ensure learning programs are tailored to the identified needs of each and every child. There are a range of support programs that are utilised at the school to meet the range of student needs. High quality teaching and support staff are focused on supporting students to achieve their best learning outcomes.
The Fernbrooke State School Responsible Behaviour Plan for Students strengthens our beliefs that interacting appropriately with others builds respect, tolerance and understanding. Our school focuses on 'Exceeding Expectations' using the Positive Behaviour for Learning model. The school expectations focus on Safe, A Thinker, Attends School, Respectful, Successful - STARS. These expectations are discussed with students daily and are well signed throughout the school.
Strong partnerships exist between school staff, students and parents/caregivers. We encourage the involvement of parents/carers and our community in school life at Fernbrooke State School. We are fortunate to have a supportive Parents and Citizens (P&C) Association. Your input and donation of time is always greatly appreciated in supporting this terrific Association.
If you would like further information, or would like a tour of our school grounds and classrooms, please don't hesitate to contact me at school to arrange a meeting time.
Yours sincerely
Jo Sinclair-Jones
Principal
