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

At Gregory Hills Public School, our purpose is to engage, challenge and inspire every learner. We hope that when our children leave us, they do so with a deeper curiosity about the world, eager to keep learning, creating and contributing beyond the school gates.

We are a proud and growing school community built on the values of Connection, Collaboration and Courage. These values guide everything we do, from the way we learn together, to how we care for one another, and how we build a sense of belonging for every child and family who walks through our gates.

Our stunning contemporary learning spaces reflect the kind of education we believe in - flexible, inclusive and innovative. Classrooms are designed to promote collaboration, creativity and critical thinking, supported by digital tools and purposeful design that empower students to take ownership of their learning. Through inquiry-based approaches, Story Workshop, project-based learning and the integration of STEM and the arts, our teachers bring learning to life in meaningful and engaging ways.

Partnerships are central to who we are. We work hand-in-hand with families, our local community, and community of schools to create learning pathways that support every child to thrive. Together, we celebrate diversity, honour culture and community, and shape a school environment where respect, empathy and joy are at the heart of daily life.

As Principal, I am incredibly proud of our dedicated staff, our courageous learners, and our supportive community who together make Gregory Hills Public School such a special place to grow and learn.

We invite you to explore our website, connect with our story, and join us as we continue to build Stronger Connections and Brighter Futures for every child.
