Welcome to O’Connor Cooperative School's website. I hope you find your visit to our site both informative and enjoyable.

O’Connor Cooperative School is an ACT government Early Childhood school catering for children from Preschool to Year 2. The Co-op has a long and proud tradition of excellence in all areas of Early Childhood education.

The community is very involved with, proud of and protective of its school. When a boy or girl joins our school we do more than enrol a student - we take in a family. We hope that all families who come to O’Connor will feel they belong and that they can participate fully in their child’s education.

At O’Connor Cooperative School we aim to provide an energetic, positive and optimistic school where we all want to teach and learn. We want our students to begin their lifetime of learning with a sense of wonder and a spirit of inquiry.

Our staff encourage students to celebrate and share their strengths, to be open to new experiences and friendships, to refine skills that are already evident and uncover talents that haven't yet been developed.

O’Connor Cooperative School has quality facilities with interactive whiteboards in all classrooms, a quality library and lovely, well-kept, enclosed grounds. We are currently working with the community to implement the design of an innovative Early Childhood outdoor learning space.

Visitors to O’Connor Cooperative School regularly remark upon the warmth and friendliness of children and staff. I invite you to share in the experience.
