Tomaree High School is a government-funded co-educational comprehensive secondary day school, located in Salamander Bay, a suburb of the Port Stephens Council local government area in New South Wales, Australia.
Established in 1988, the school enrolled approximately 1,110 students in 2018, from Year 7 to Year 12, of whom eight percent identified as Indigenous Australians and eight percent were from a language background other than English.[1] The school is operated by the NSW Department of Education; the principal is Paul Baxter.[3]
A crossbow shooting incident occurred at the school in April 2003. Two 16-year-old girls were injured during the incident. A 16-year-old male was charged with attempted murder, two counts of maliciously wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, possession of a prohibited weapon, and throwing an explosive. However, his homemade explosive did not work.[4]
