Fairfield Heights Public School
Fairfield Heights Public School is a large primary school which was established in 1952. The school motto is 'Share and Learn'. Our students are the central focus of our school. Cultural diversity is a feature at our school. Ninety-one per cent of our students are from language backgrounds other than English. Major cultural backgrounds of our families include Vietnamese, Assyrian, Arabic, Samoan, Serbian and Spanish. Approximately fifteen per cent of our students are classified as coming from a refugee background. Our purpose is to provide stimulating experiences and programs relevant to the individual needs of our students. Special emphasis is placed upon literacy, numeracy and information technology programs. Modern resources and excellent library facilities provide opportunities for our children to learn effectively in all Key Learning Areas. Our school receives funding to support the improvement of student outcomes in the basic areas of literacy and numeracy. Quality education results from quality teaching. The role of the classroom teacher is the cornerstone underpinning a quality education for the students at Fairfield Heights Public School. We believe education involves a partnership where students, teachers and parents work together effectively and collaboratively to ensure the 'very best' for the children at Fairfield Heights Public School.

Maintenance
To ensure the safety, reliability and longevity of our schools, every school across NSW receives maintenance. The Department undertakes preventative and routine maintenance every year, and repairs as needed. The Department also reviews the planned maintenance program for each school every year and reviews those items that are predicted to require work to help prolong the life of the school buildings and facilities.
