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
It is a privilege to welcome you to Burrawang Public School, a small school with a strong sense of community, where every child is known, valued and encouraged to reach their potential.
At Burrawang Public School, we believe every child has the capacity to thrive academically, socially and emotionally. Our highly skilled and passionate staff are committed to providing engaging, high-quality learning that responds to the strengths, interests and needs of each student in our care. We want our students to be curious and confident learners who are challenged to achieve their personal best while developing the character, creativity and resilience they need for the future.
We also recognise the importance of learning beyond the classroom. Through a broad range of academic, sporting, creative, leadership and community opportunities, students are encouraged to discover their interests, develop their talents and experience a genuine sense of belonging.
Burrawang Public School brings together the best of a small village school — strong relationships, room to play and grow in a beautiful country setting, and an active partnership with families and our P&C — with an evidence-informed and aspirational approach to teaching and learning.
I warmly invite you to explore our website, book a tour of our school and discover what makes Burrawang Public School such a special place for children to learn, grow and belong.
