Eco Warriors

At Barnier Public School, our Eco Warriors are passionate about caring for the environment and making a positive impact in our community. We grow our own vegetables, create habitats for local wildlife such as native birds, lizards, and frogs, and maintain beautiful native gardens. Through our Return and Earn program and various sustainability projects, we learn, take action, and share our knowledge with others to protect biodiversity and help build a greener future.

Sport and PSSA (Yr 3-6)

At PSSA, our Sport program offers students exciting opportunities to develop their skills, teamwork, and sportsmanship across a range of popular sports including netball, soccer, rugby league, Oz Tag, cricket, and European Handball. Every Friday, students come together to train and compete against other schools in these sports, representing their schools with pride and enthusiasm. Through regular Friday sessions and inter-school competitions, students build confidence, stay active, and enjoy the spirit of friendly competition. The program promotes inclusivity and a love of physical activity, encouraging students of all abilities to participate and challenge themselves. Our Friday PSSA sport sessions are a vital part of fostering healthy, engaged, and connected school communities.

Creative and performing arts

Our drama, music and art programs help students be creative and express themselves. They can join in concerts, art shows and drama activities.

Trips and excursions

Our students enjoy getting out of the classroom to explore, learn and try new things. These experiences help them grow, build confidence and see how their learning connects to the world.
