Ilford Public School was established in 1868 and enjoys a rich history. Ilford Public School is located 56 km from Mudgee and 70 km from Lithgow.

Today, we focus on inclusive quality teaching & learning, integrating technology to lessons and ensuring the positive wellbeing of staff and students. Ilford Public School is an integral part of a very active rural community that resides in the surrounding areas of Running Stream, Crudine, Mount Vincent and Ilford. The school enjoys a strong relationship with its parent body and various community and district organisations. The school's mission statement was developed in 1995 by the School Council and states that: In a caring, supportive environment we provide students with educational experiences founded on basic skills. We will challenge each child to develop to the best of their ability. We will endeavour to empower each student to take responsibility for their learning because learning is a lifelong process. We will endeavour to provide learning experiences that will stimulate and instil a desire to learn, to inquire and to create. Our work to achieve our aims will be characterised by team work through a collaborative approach involving parents, staff, pupils and community. A strong orientation program for Kindergarten and new students provides an easy transition into school routines.

🎶 🎻 Musica Viva & Dance 💃🏼 🕺🏼
What an absolutely fabulous day we had yesterday with our small school friends from Hargraves, Lue, Glen Alice and Hill End at Hargraves PS for a day of all things music and dance.
The learning began with the outstanding ‘Game Day’ performance from the Phoenix Collective Quartet courtesy of Musica Viva.
After a lovely recess eaten under the trees and a play together, students walked to the Hargraves Hall where Naomi from Dance with Attitude conducted a wonderful dance workshop where all the moves were on show!
We then returned to school to enjoy a delicious lunch, prepared by Hargraves PS P&C.
Thank you to Hargraves PS for hosting the day and sharing your beautiful school with us. We had a fantastic day!
