Culcairn Public School, established in 1883, is the largest of two primary schools serving the Culcairn area. The school maintains strong traditions in academic achievement and sport. The school's motto "Whatever you do, do it well" is at the heart of all programs.
The school is set in recently extended grounds with some mature trees and new shade areas. There has been an area revitalised with native fauna to create an environmental area that is maintained by students, staff and community members.
