Built by the Snowy Mountains Authority in 1953, Cooma North Public School currently has an enrolment of 318 students drawn from northern Cooma and surrounding rural subdivisions.

Cooma North is a Positive Behaviour for Success (PBS) School and values the strong sense of community. Our school encourages students, parents, staff and the wider community to work together as a team to enhance the learning experiences of all students.

A strong community/school partnership has culminated to form our vision and a set of outcome statements, guiding all decisions. We believe our students should become: Effective Communicators who receive and convey ideas clearly and confidently; Inspired Learners who are self-motivated problem solvers, who view learning as life-long; Thinkers who consider all possibilities and are capable of successfully working in a team; Responsible Global Citizens who try to improve the quality of life for all; Decision Makers who are informed, understanding and individually accept responsibility.
