Gum Flat Public School

Gum Flat Public School, 16 kms west of Inverell in Northern NSW, has achieved 126 years of successful public education. Our strong teaching and administration team, along with our parent and wider community, are committed to providing a caring environment of stimulation, opportunity, participation and achievement for the individual child, the teachers and the support staff.

The school is supported by a strong and active Parents and Citizens Association. They hold regular functions designed to foster school and community unity and raise money to support student programs. Gum Flat Public School is a focus for the village and the cooperation between the school and community groups benefits the students with many school supports such as donations, working bees and shared use of facilities.

Students from the school have demonstrated success in academic programs, sporting endeavours and are successful citizens locally and globally. We are proud of their achievements in all areas under the school motto, 'Caring and Achieving'. Enviable physical surrounds ensure Gum Flat Public School's place in the Sapphire Community of Schools as a school with a big heart, a lot to offer and a willingness to share at all levels.
