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 our school, a place where every child is known, valued and inspired to achieve their personal best.
At our core, we celebrate the uniqueness of every student. Here at Barrack Heights Public School we believe that every child brings their own strengths, passions and potential, and it is our privilege to nurture these qualities so they can shine in their own way.
Our dedicated teachers and support staff go above and beyond every day. They bring expertise, compassion and creativity to every classroom, ensuring that learning is engaging, meaningful and tailored to meet the needs of each child. Their commitment creates a learning environment where students feel safe, supported and motivated to thrive.
Here at Barrack Heights, we are deeply proud of the strong partnerships we share with our families and wider community. Together, we create a wrap-around network of care and encouragement that supports every learner’s journey. When schools, families and communities work hand in hand, incredible things happen and our students are living proof of that.
From dynamic classroom learning to rich experiences beyond the school gates, our students are given opportunities to explore, create and dream big. Whether it is through academic pursuits, the arts, sport, leadership, or community projects, our children learn that anything is possible.
Barrack Heights is more than a place of learning...it is a vibrant community where kindness, curiosity and excellence flourish side by side.
Welcome to our school, where every child’s story matters, and every success is celebrated.
