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 small and welcoming regional community nestled on the scenic Comboyne Plateau.
We are proud to offer a strong wellbeing approach grounded in neuroeducation and choice theory, supporting every student's individual growth.
Our Patch 2 Plate kitchen garden program nurtures a love of learning and healthy living, with the school growing upwards of 30 varieties of fruits and vegetables.
Our dedicated staff are committed to holistic education, meeting the unique needs of each child within a safe and enjoyable learning environment spread across five acres, including two orchards with stunning rural views.
As a well-respected school, we enjoy strong support from our community and are proud supporters of the Comboyne Show, where students participate by entering art, flowers, fruits, vegetables, and cattle competitions. We also value our founding partnership with the Bago Aboriginal Education Committee, which enriches our school community.
Our vision is: Growing a connected school community. Safe, Inclusive, Empowered. Every Voice Every Day.
