Stuart State School has been proudly serving the rural communities on the southern edge of Townsville for 119 years. The very best traditions of manners, considerate behaviour and pride in our school provide the foundation values for Stuart as a school for the future. We are committed to preparing students for an information age by providing them with the knowledge and skills necessary for lifelong learning. Our motto of Strength through Learning will apply as each child will develop competency in literacy and numeracy,confidence in the use of learning technology, selfrespect selfesteem and selfcontrol, the ability to participate in groups and to develop as an independent, motivated learner with a commitment to lifelong learning. We deliver a curriculum which caters for the needs of individual students while covering the Key Learning Areas,including Intercultural Investigations in Chinese, and is augmented by our Oral language,Special Needs, Instrumental Music, Environmental and Peer support programs. Our family based structure supports students as learners, parents as partners in learning, and teachers as facilitators so we can achieve the very best for our children.
