About our school

Built by the Snowy Mountains Authority in 1953, Cooma North Public School (CNPS) currently has 305 students drawn from northern Cooma and surrounding rural subdivisions. CNPS is highly regarded by the community with a learning centre to support student extension, enrichment and adult/teacher training.

The school is structured around 'stages of learning' rather than single age-based grades, has extensive internet access, technology resources and provides outstanding performing arts opportunities. A strong community/school partnership has culminated in a set of outcome statements, guiding all decisions. We believe our students should become: EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATORS who receive and convey ideas clearly and confidently; INSPIRED LEARNERS who are self-motivated problem solvers, who view learning as life-long; THINKERS who consider all possibilities and are capable of successfully working in a team; RESPONSIBLE GLOBAL CITIZENS who try to improve the quality of life for all; DECISION MAKERS who are informed, understanding and individually accept responsibility.
