Our school

Gargett is a well equipped school, set against a beautiful backdrop of lush tropical vegetation and leafy green sugar cane.  We have spacious, well established and well maintained grounds with plenty of shady protection from the  North Queensland sun.

Our school boasts 4 quality teaching areas,  which are all air-conditioned, one fully equipped library, two covered play areas, multi purpose sports area and a large oval.  All buildings are connected by a series of covered walkways and we currently have two playgrounds. Our students are lucky enough to have a large sand pit out the back of the covered areas with a sports sheds which holds all resources.

We have a ratio of 1 computer to every student,  Ipads , all of which are constantly updated and regularly serviced, and robotics kits to extend students use of learning technology. Computers are maintained and updated by a local education queensland technical advisor. Two classrooms boost data boards which are used daily by teaching staff.

The school office/administration building is set at the front of the school to welcome all visitors to our school. The building was built part of the BER Project April 8th, 2011and originally was called the resource centre. The admin block holds a teaching space which is used by Learning support staff and visiting specialist teachers.

Our school has well maintained gardens and school yard, along with a large tennis court. Our adventure playground is very popular during lunch breaks and also when we host combined small schools events. The bright colours make it stand out against the healthy green background of our school.
