2024 Gulyangarri, Liverpool, Marsden road and Warwick Farm Public School Catchment Map Update

Today, I will go over the Gulyangarri, Liverpool, Marsden Road, and Warwick Farm Public School catchment update for 2024.

Everything north of Elizabeth Street is transferred away from Liverpool Public School to the Gulyangarri and Warwick Farm Public School. This area entirely consists of medium to high-density dwellings, so the impact on the enrolment number will be very significant.

Everything east of Copeland Street is being transferred from Marsden Road Public School mainly to Gulyangarri Public School with a very small block to the Warwick Farm Public School. Again this area almost entirely consists of medium to high-density dwellings.

The area is bounded by Lachland Street to the south, Bigge Street to the east, Hume Highway to the north and west, and is being transferred to the Warwick Farming Public School from Marsden Road and Liverpool Public School in 2024. This area consists of entirely medium to high-density dwellings as well.

The above three combined together will have a very significant reduction to the existing enrolment number at the Liverpool Public School in the coming years.

Please note the green-striped area is what will be transferred to the newly opened Gulyangarri Public School from Liverpool Public School in 2024. The red-striped area is what will be transferred to the newly opened Gulyangarri Public School from Marsden Public School. The yellow-striped area is what will be transferred to the Warwick Farm Public School from Marsden Road and Liverpool Public School. The black border is the 2024 catchment boundary and the red is the 2023 boundary.

2024 Rouse Hill and Tallawong Public School Catchment Update

Today, I will go over Rouse Hill and Tallawong Public School and its new catchment for 2024.

The area west of Windsor Road will now become part of the new public school Tallawong Public School in 2024

This area consists of a number of medium-density dwellings and around low number of single dwellings. This will likely be ready to cater for further construction and completion of medium-density dwellings in the area.

Please note the yellow-striped area is what will be transferred to the Tallawong Public School from Rouse Hill Public School in 2024. The black border is the 2024 catchment boundary and the red is the 2023 boundary.

The area north of Lawson Parade including both sides of this street up to the Killeaton street has been transferred from St Ives Public School to St Ives Park Public School in 2024.

This area consists fair number of medium-density dwellings and around 100 single dwellings. This will be a fairly significant transfer of enrolment area population-wise.

Merging of the single-sex high schools in NSW

Recent news has confirmed that Randwick Boys and Girls High School will officially merge, a decision that has been in the works for some time but was only recently made official. Over the past few decades, girls’ high schools have consistently remained more popular than their boys’ counterparts. As a result, many boys’ high schools have closed while their corresponding girls’ high schools continue to thrive. Additionally, several boys’ high schools have faced issues with low enrolment.

While this decision is not well-received by some students and parents at Randwick Girls High School, it appears to be a logical solution that will allow for more efficient use of existing facilities. The school catchments of both schools already overlap, so there should be minimal impact on enrolment.

Furthermore, there are several other potential candidates for similar mergers within the education system.

  • Ashfield Boys and Burwood Girls High School
  • Asquith Boys and Girls High School
  • Balgowlah Boys and Mackellar Girls High School
  • Bankstown Girls and Punchbowl Boys High School
  • Belmore Boys and Wiley Park Girls High School
  • Birrong Boys and Girls High School
  • Blacktown Boys and Girls High School
  • Canterbury Boys and Girls High School
  • East Hills Boys and Girls High School
  • Epping Boys and Cheltenham Girls High School
  • Granville Boys and Auburn Girls High School
  • Homebush Boys and Strathfield Girls High School
  • Hurstville Boys and Penshurst Girls High School
  • James Cook Boys Technology and Moorefield Girls High School
  • Liverpool Boys and Girls High School

There are a number of stand-alone girls’ high schools such as Willoughby Girls High School which overlaps a number of other co-ed high schools. I do not foresee any changes to these schools in the near future.

Online Learning For Sydney Students For The Next Two Weeks

Victoria is entering a new round of lockdown and students will have to do the online learning again. NSW school holiday had ended earlier this week and will have to spend at least the first three weeks of term 3 this year with online learning.

With what happened previously I think this particular lockdown in Sydney and associated online learning will not likely end towards mid of term 3 at the least.

I just want to do a quick review of online learning with my own children. My elder one is in high school this year in the local government high school. The school in question is very well organized and drilled the students previously on the procedures and what needs to be done in case of a lockdown. All high school students got their own laptop and use it extensively already in their day-to-day schooling, the school is also well organised and required information went out to all students in their email and Google classrooms before the term starts. The schedule pretty much mirrors the in-school one and they perform roll call in the morning and stay in zoom all day.

My younger one is still in primary school and the school in question is also fairly well organized. We picked up a laptop from school on Tuesday morning and relevant information was also emailed to us and the student’s Google classroom as well. The scheduling is a lot less tightly organized reflecting the student’s corresponding abilities at different ages as well.

Both of my children went through online learning last year, so they all got exposure to this routine and are enduring it fairly well. I personally felt a lot easier this time around whereas last year was very much like herding cats most of the time.

Macquarie Park Education Precinct

With the massive amount of residential towers already went up and still going up around North Ryde and Macquarie Park area, it is not a surprise that new schools need to be estabilished in the vincinity.

Macquarie Park Education Precinct will have both primary and high schools on the same site. It is still in the planning stage and originally to be funded in the 2018 to 2019 financial year. However, the most recent NSW 2021 to the 2022 year budget had allocated $16 million to this project, so the project is likely significantly delayed compare to the originally planned schedule.

Macquarie Park Education Precinct will be built on the previous site of Peter Board High School or what was previously called North Ryde High School. The school was closed in 1998 and the site sold off in 2006 by the NSW government for $52 million and school buildings demolished in 2008. It is not known how much the NSW government spend to purchase the site back, but it is safe to assume it is significantly more than what it had received selling the site.

A fun trivia, the current NSW premier Gladys Berejiklian attended North Ryde High School was a former school captain.

The large empty patch of land was the demolished site of old Peter Board High School and proposed the site of the new Macquarie Park Education Precinct. The Ryde Hunters Hill District Hockey Club was built on the former school oval.
