There has been a primary school in Pine Creek for over 100 years,
which makes the school the oldest in the Northern Territory.
The School consists of a Pre School and a Primary School (Transition to
Year 7). The School is located within the township on a large, long block
of land. There is an Early Childhood Unit catering for preschool, transition
and year 1 and a classroom for upper primary school. There is anothre classroom for middle school and this building also houses the library. There are also two small storerooms, a staffroom, office and several sheds.
Adjacent to the school grounds is a Playgroup managed by the Playgroup
Association of the Northern Territory. This playgroup is very well resourced
and operates three days a week.
Over 50%
of all students are indigenous, most of them entering school with English
as a second or third language. These students live at Kybrook farm and
at the town camp in Pine Creek. Non indigenous students live in town and
the surrounding region. |
