Townsville Central State School, Townsville's oldest school The school is located close to The Strand and to the central business district.

Townsville Central State School is the oldest school in Townsville and the school has a very strong and positive community atmosphere. We provide a high quality education to students from Prep to Year 6 within a Positive Culture for Learning (PCL) philosophy supporting The Resilient Child. The school also runs, through the P&C, an Outside School Hours Care program, before school, after school and during vacations.

Today, our Adopt-Cowboy, Mason Barber, visited CCB and joined them in the library as they shared the books they were borrowing with him this week. Mason listened to some students read, shared interesting facts from information books and even helped them find characters in a search and find book.

At first break, CCB students invited Mason to join them for a game of soccer. Students loved playing along side him and responded positively to his encouragement on the field.

Yesterday CCA, CCB and CCC enjoyed a visit from some Australian animals thanks to Hands on Wildlife. The children all enjoyed learning about the animals and some even faced their fears holding a snake or crocodile.
