Education Week which takes place from Monday, August 5 to Friday, August 9 is a statewide annual event that celebrates public education in NSW with an emphasis on students, educators and the communities that support them.
In Education Week 2019 Forbes High School will highlight student empowerment, agency and ownership of their education under the theme, 'Every student, every voice'.
It is an important message that underpins NSW Education's ambition for every student within the public school system to be known, valued and cared for. The message gives us the opportunity to reflect on the valuable role student voice has in creating engaged citizens who will thrive beyond the school gates.
At Forbes High School, Education Week will be celebrated with the White Ribbon Rugby League Challenge Cup against Parkes High School as well as the Boys Night In and Girls Night Out events.
Principal Safija Bristina said Education Week was the ideal opportunity for the school to reach out to its community and share its achievements.
"Forbes High School continues to strive towards excellence and our staff, students and parents have much to celebrate from our recent external validation, in which peer principals acknowledged our school is excelling in educational leadership and well-being," Ms Bristina said.
