Temora High School (THS) has as its mission, to provide opportunities for all students to achieve excellence in academic, cultural, sporting and civic endeavours in an environment conducive to learning, teaching and friendship.
Temora High strives to meet the present and future needs of our students, in partnership with the community, providing varied and high quality educational programs characterised by effective teaching and learning.
THS caters for those students who are Gifted and Talented and for those requiring support for learning difficulties. Quality academic and vocational programs are available to meet the needs of all students.
We are tolerant and understanding of all students. We acknowledge that all students have rights, but expect them to recognise over time that they also have responsibilities to themselves, their peers, the staff, their parents and anyone else who is assisting them in their education.
Our strong place in the Public Education system stems from having a competent and dedicated staff as well as successful partnerships with and between students, parents, staff, ex-students and community members and organisations.
THS has a primary focus on learning which includes high expectations and a positive attitude to change. It is a school where students can and do achieve to their potential; a school which prepares students for their future lives.
