Events

School events bring learning to life and play an important role in shaping our school culture. They provide opportunities for students to build confidence, strengthen relationships, and celebrate their progress. These events also invite families to be actively involved in school life and to share in their child’s achievements and successes.

Our school events include:

Kindergarten orientation days
Grandparents Day
sports carnivals including 3-6 Swimming, Athletics and Cross Country carnivals
K-2 Sports Fun Days
open classrooms during Education Week
school tours
ANZAC Day and Remembrance Day ceremonies
Harmony Week and Book Week events
excursions and incursions to complement classroom learning and the curriculum
performances, concerts or school productions including Combined Schools Concert and the St George Performing Arts Music Festival (SPAF)
fundraising, charity and community events including Colour runs and the Oatley West Public School Community Festival
award assemblies
graduation and other celebrations.

Excursions are valuable learning experiences that extend students’ learning beyond the classroom. They provide hands-on opportunities to explore new environments, deepen understanding of key concepts, and connect classroom learning to the real world in meaningful and engaging ways.

Book Week is always a special celebration of reading that brings stories to life across our school.
