Why choose our school

Welcome to Ellalong Public School

Ellalong Public School is a public school in the Hunter Valley region of NSW.

At Ellalong Public School (EPS), we strive to provide outstanding academic, extra-curricular, and social/emotional opportunities for growth in a safe, supportive, and inclusive learning environment.

Located in Ellalong, 13 km southwest of Cessnock, our school is well-regarded within our community. With approximately 115 students, EPS enjoys an attendance rate above the Department of Education average, and our NAPLAN and Check-In Assessment results have regularly exceeded those of Statistically Similar Schools.

We are committed to enabling all students to reach their highest potential. Highly dedicated teaching and support staff engage in professional learning to ensure our programs cater for all students.

Our focus on positive wellbeing creates a safe and inclusive learning environment, promoting engagement, regular attendance and essential social skills development.

Our sporting achievements match schools of a greater population and we operate a highly successful speech and language intervention program.  

Collaborative relationships with families prioritise student learning and drive ongoing school improvement. We proudly celebrate our diversity, with 25% of our students identifying as Aboriginal. Strong partnerships with our P&C and the Korreil Wonnai AECG further enrich the opportunities we provide. 

As a proud member of the Cessnock Community of Great Public Schools (CCGPS), EPS is dedicated to instilling skills, confidence and values in our students for a bright future.
