The Cargo Public School difference

A strong start

At our small country school, we warmly welcome students from all backgrounds and walks of life. We are committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and nurturing environment where every child feels valued and supported. From their very first day, we help students build confidence, feel connected, and be ready to learn and grow in a community that cares.

Growth in the classroom and beyond

At our small country school, we provide a broad range of subjects and exciting opportunities that inspire students to explore, learn, and grow. We encourage every child to develop new skills, embrace challenges, and uncover their unique passions—both inside the classroom and beyond.

Support for every family

At our small country school, our dedicated teachers and wellbeing teams partner closely with families to provide the best support for each student. Together, we create personalised learning plans that meet individual needs, ensuring every child can thrive and succeed in the way that suits them best.

Headstart Transition Program

Commencing on Monday 11 May 2026, Cargo have began an early transition program aimed at giving children 4+ a headstart to Kindergarten.

Our HeadStart Program is a whole day, play-based learning experience designed to help your child settle smoothly into school life. Run by our dedicated school staff, the program takes place right in the classroom, providing a familiar and welcoming environment. Contact the school office to secure a place for your child.

Principal's message

As Principal of Cargo School, I am delighted to welcome you to our close-knit and vibrant learning community. Here, we believe in nurturing every child’s individual talents and fostering a love of learning through personalised programs tailored to their unique needs.

Our students benefit from hands-on experiences such as tending to our vegetable garden and caring for our chickens, which help develop responsibility, curiosity, and an appreciation for the natural world. We also offer rich opportunities in the arts and cultural activities, complemented by exciting collaborations with other small schools, broadening our students’ horizons.

Our spacious grounds, with two outdoor play areas, a sandpit, a large oval, and a sealed basketball and tennis court, provide wonderful spaces for physical activity, creativity, and friendship. Additionally, our 25-seater school bus ensures safe and reliable transport for excursions and community events.

We value strong partnerships with families and encourage you to be active participants in your child’s educational journey. For families with Kindergarten children, orientation sessions during Terms 3 and 4 offer a warm introduction to school life.

Thank you for considering Cargo School. I look forward to welcoming you and your family to our school community and working together to support your child’s growth and success.

Warm regards,

Peter Chase Principal of Cargo Public School
