The Nature School Primary
Ph: (02) 6581 5392
The Nature School Primary (TNS Primary) strives to be a leading progressive independent school with a focus on nature. TNS Primary opened its doors in January 2018 with two amazing educators and an eager group of children and families. Located in the Innes Lake Community Centre, the Primary School was founded in a beautiful mud brick building at 166 The Ruins Way, Port Macquarie, NSW 2444.
In 2021 we are fully registered for Kindergarten to Year 5, and will continue adding grade levels and additional staff year-on-year until we reach a K-6 Primary School in 2022. Come and join the adventure as we grow a school.
