About this school, from public sources
Public information describes Green Hill Public School as a small K-6 primary school in West Kempsey, NSW, with a strong connection to the local Aboriginal community — around 98% of enrolments are Aboriginal students. The school runs culturally rich learning programs woven into everyday classroom teaching, including Accelerated Literacy and Count Me In Too Indigenous, alongside the Dunghutti language program and health, welfare and nutrition initiatives such as Munch 'n' Crunch. A low student-to-teacher ratio supports small-group, individualised learning.
