A year at our school

Cultural Education

Throughout the year, Bingara Central School engage with Gomeroi Aboriginal custodians to deliver cultural education. Students from Kindergarten to Stage 4 attend a weekly Aboriginal language class to extend their knowledge.

Living Memorial

Each year, students guard the town’s orange trees and their fruit – a living memorial to Bingara’s servicemen and women - until the commemorative service held on the last day of Term 2. Following the service, students join with the community to pick the oranges.

Thomson Cup

Our annual Athletics Carnival, the Thomson Cup, is held in June each year. Year 2 – 12 students march through the town to the Gwydir Oval in their Houses of Bradman, Laver and Fraser before competing in a range of track and field events.

Book Week

Book Week is an annual highlight of the school calendar with student and staff across the whole school taking part in the festivities.

"As a parent, I am proud to commend Bingara Central School for its outstanding professionalism and commitment to excellence. The staff create a supportive and inclusive environment where students feel valued and encouraged to achieve their best. Events such as Orange Picking and the Thomson Cup highlight the school’s dedication to providing memorable, community focused experiences that enrich learning beyond the classroom.

I also appreciate the school’s caring approach to nurturing academic growth. It is clear that the staff are committed to helping every child feel confident and thrive in their learning journey. I am sincerely grateful for the dedication, passion, and high standards that the entire Bingara Central School team brings to our community.” — parent of Bingara Central School.
