The school's curriculum plan provides a strong focus on literacy and numeracy across all key learning areas. Our culture is based on the development of a positive school community and through the realisation of the school's vision and values of respect for self, respect for others and respect for the school. Our pastoral care program provides the opportunity to teach values, inter-personal skills, teamwork and strategies to promote positive behaviours. The school's extra-curricular program offers students a wide array of sporting, cultural and enrichment activities. These activities cater for the individual needs of students and provide a context in which all children can excel. Our school is an important part of the local community and enjoys strong support from parents and carers. Windsor State School provides a welcoming, rich and rewarding environment which promotes 'the magic of learning' for all our children.
