Our principal and staff
Our school team is committed to every student’s learning, wellbeing and sense of belonging. We work together to create a supportive and inclusive school where every child is set up for success.
Welcome from our principal
Welcome to Wongarbon Public School, where our close-knit school community proudly nurtures every child in a warm and supportive environment. With small class sizes, we ensure personalised attention, allowing each student to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. Our dedicated staff genuinely know and care for every child and work closely with families to create a genuine partnership in education.
At Wongarbon Public, we offer a rich range of extra-curricular activities, allowing students to explore their interests, develop new skills, and build lasting friendships. We are committed to building and developing teamwork, leadership, and self-confidence skills, inspiring our students to become responsible and effective members of society. Our inclusive approach celebrates Aboriginal Education and embraces diversity, ensuring every child feels valued and supported in a culturally respectful environment.
Through strong connections within our school and the wider community, including our active P&C, we foster a welcoming atmosphere where children feel safe, motivated, and empowered to grow. I invite local families to join our school community and experience the unique benefits of a small, caring school dedicated to your child’s success and well-being.
