Hornsby North Public School

This is a really good school, which is local to many people in Hornsby. It is one of the best public schools in Sydney. It is at an affordable price with many hands-on experiences. The school provides chromebooks for years 3-4, Dells for years 5-6, and ipads for k-2. There is art, language and more. You will have an opportunity to join a dancing thing from year 2. You can also try out for PSSA (public school sport association) from year 3. The sports included in PSSA are football (soccer), t-ball, softball, AFL and more. You will also be allowed to join a band which comes with lessons for the instrument you play in the school grounds after school hours (sometimes before school hours). The bands you can join are; junior: yr 3, intermmediate: y4 and senior and stage band from yr5-6. You can also do choir, in which most people get in. In kindy, you can do kindy groovers, where you can dance and sing, and you can also join a similar activity in year 1 and 2. We also have Harmony activities, and we learn about how people belong, we don't bully and other things. There is a library here, with many books to borrow (for free) and the canteen food is nice. There are also many great play areas such as the oval, camping ground, 3-6 equipment & quadrangle with handball squares, k-2 equipment & quadrangle with hopscotch, alphabet, hundreds chart and there is a ball court in which you can play tennis, basketball, netball and more. There is a very nice environment, sometimes, you can see wallabies over the fence of the camping ground, and many birds. The students here are kind, and you will make friends easily. The teachers will do lots to help with students. The teachers are kind and they connect well to the students and you will feel welcome. I certainly recommend attending this school, as you will get outstanding education, make lots of friends and have great experiences. (-2023 graduate)

I attended this school from K-6 a number of years ago and felt so isolated and racially discriminated against especially by Mrs. Butterworth who was teaching Y2 at the time. Surprised she’s still there now teaching Y5/6. I would never send my children there even if the school has advanced over the years a few bad apples really make a huge difference to a child’s environment.

I liked this school. I specifically liked Mrs Butterworth (5/6 B teacher). Many say she's 'strict' but she's not at all. It all comes down to the schools amazing principal, Mrs Sumpton. Without her, this school wouldn't be as it is today. Thanks-2024 graduate 'from the future'

I would rate this a 6/5 if I could. I was here from K-6 and my experience was amazing. The teachers are amazing and Mrs Sumpton is an encouraging and amazing principal. If i could have more lives, I would go to Hornsby North in every one of them. Only one complaint: some students get privileges. 5/6B is rigged and all the favourites go there. There is a lot of favouritism and children of teachers get privileges. Apart from that, 100% Send your children to this school if you want them to grow up happy. 100/10.

This was an awesome school. The teachers are very good at teaching and are very nice. Bullying is not tolerated and the teachers and Mrs Sumpton handle situations professionally. The teachers connect with the students to give them a better experience. They explain everything properly so everyone understands it. The only flaw in this school is 5/6 B. A lot of students in 5/6 B have privileges that the other students don't have. Otherwise, this is a great school and I definitely recommend attending.
