Education Gold Coast introduces Hervey Bay Special School in Scarness, for all your education and learning needs.
Hervey Bay Special School is a state school for special students. It opened in 1986 with 19 children and has grown to have nearly 100 students. To enrol in our school a child must have an intellectual impairment, many of our students have additional impairments including visual, hearing, physical and Autism Disorders.
Our school is a great school with well-trained experienced staff who meet the diverse needs of the students very well. Hervey Bay Special School has won a number of state awards and a national award for excellence. It is a student focussed school that strives to develop independent citizens. Hervey Bay is a small coastal city about 3 ½ hour’s drive north of Brisbane.
The environment is clean and fresh with a mild sub-tropical climate. A local attraction is the ease of accessing Fraser Island. It is well serviced through high quality public education consisting of two high schools, six primary schools and our special school; as well as several independent schools.
Welcome to Hervey Bay Special School one of the popular educators in your Scarness area. Our aim is help you in your learning journey.
We endeavour to celebrate each other’s uniqueness by providing opportunity for all and to develop a culture that identifies that the journey towards excellence is often paved with trial and error, risk taking, learning from mistakes, flexibility and adaptability. We believe that encouraging students to take ownership of the learning is critical in achieving the best learning outcomes and that implicit in this concept is that students learn their own areas of strength and areas of development, through useful and explicit feedback.
