Supportive environment
MACHANS Beach State School is a beautiful little seaside school in the middle of Cairns.
Principal Maree Harris says the school prides itself “on providing a supportive school environment which ensures every student reaches his or her potential in their learning as well as in their physical, social, emotional and moral development.”
“The school motto is ‘Respecting Ourselves, Caring for Others’. We set high standards in developing selfesteem and caring for each other as proud individuals, school and community members.”
Machans Beach State School is a smaller school and this comes as a benefit to students, because they are given the best opportunity to learn and grow as individuals, while being supported by a team of dedicated teachers, specialists and support staff.
With a focus on English, maths and science, students at Machans Beach State School are sure to receive a wellrounded education, with these core subjects complemented by other key learning areas like studies of society and environment, history, the arts, health and physical education and technology. A committed staff supported by student families and the broader community have enabled students to excel in academic programs, sporting areas, choral music programs and other extra-curricular activities.
“Our mission is to provide students with an environment in which to achieve quality learning outcomes. The diverse cultural identity within the school is a strong foundation to providing a supportive caring environment for children to achieve academically,” says Ms Harris.
“We’d love for you to come and see our school, meet our dedicated and professional staff. Enrol now for 2016.” For more information about Machans Beach State School, visit the website at www.machbeacss.eq.edu.au, or call 4037 4222.
