Set across 52 acres of open parklands overlooking Burnie and Bass Strait, Parklands High School offers a learning environment shaped by space, connection and opportunity. As a government secondary school serving the Romaine community and surrounding areas, the school has a strong history of supporting young people to achieve to their full potential across academic, vocational, sporting and co-curricular pathways.
Recent redevelopment has transformed the campus into a contemporary learning setting, with expansive and flexible spaces that encourage collaboration, creativity and engagement. These environments support differentiated learning approaches and provide meaningful access for students with diverse needs, while also fostering positive relationships and a strong school culture.
Learning at Parklands High School is personalised and holistic, with a clear focus on developing the whole person. Staff work in partnership with students and families to support growth, wellbeing and success, and community engagement is recognised as central to positive learning outcomes. Students are encouraged to think critically, solve problems, contribute positively and develop resilience as connected members of their community.
The school’s values underpin everyday practice and are reflected across all learning experiences. Guided by the motto “Straight Forward and Always Honourable,” the values of Connection, Courage, Growth, Respect and Responsibility shape expectations for learning, behaviour and relationships.
Through high-quality teaching, inclusive practices and strong partnerships, Parklands High School aims to develop confident, capable and resilient young people who are well prepared for future learning, work and life.
