Macquarie Fields was established in 1957 and has grown into a large primary school. The school stands by its motto of "Let Us Excel" by providing quality academic, cultural and sporting programs. The school serves an area of residential land featuring both public and private housing. The school has a positive image within the surrounding community with many out-of-area requests to enrol each year.
Macquarie Fields Public School was founded in 1957. In our foundation year there were 277 stduents enrolled. Charles Walker was the principal of Macquarie Fields Public School from 1957 until 1967. Charles is remembered by many ex-students as their 6th grade teacher. He is described as a gentle, patient man with a wondeful smile. His students can still recite his favourite saying: If a job is worth doing, it is worth doing well. Grace, Charles' wife, also taught at the school.

We would like to acknowledge the Dharawal people who are the traditional custodians of this land on which our school stand upon today. Let us excel as we acknowledge and respect all cultures within our school and community. We extend this respect to the elders past, present and emerging, for they hold the memories, traditions and culture of Aboriginal Australia.
