Forest Hill Public School is located opposite the Wagga Wagga RAAF Base. The school provides an educational setting for students from the defence force and civilian families. The school seeks to create an environment that is secure, accepting and educationally challenging. It aims to tailor its programs to meet the needs of students who experience numerous changes of school plus those who are long term residents. Accordingly, the school seeks to have students, staff and parents working to enhance each student's academic, cultural, physical and social development so that each may become a motivated learner able to work independently and co-operatively whilst striving for excellence. Unique programs offered by the school include student welfare, literacy, numeracy, computer and environmental education.
