Welcome from our principal
I am the proud principal of St Johns Park Public School in Sydney's South-West. We value respect, safety and active learners.
We teach, model and ensure that students: value all people; are compassionate; are aware and proud of their diverse heritage; respect and appreciate difference; are honest and follow the school's motto of "Always Our Best".
I am proud of our dedicated staff and the strong partnerships with families. Every child, regardless of background, ability, circumstances, or need is welcome in our school. Every student matters.
We work together with families to ensure students feel valued and inspired to learn. Our school holds high expectations for every child. We cultivate an environment for students to be dedicated to their learning and motivated to try their best.
I invite you to explore our website to discover what makes our school special. We look forward to welcoming you into our community.
