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 Bellambi Public School, we are proud to provide a nurturing and dynamic learning environment where every child is known, valued and cared for. Our dedicated teachers are committed to academic excellence, using evidence-based practices aligned with the Science of Learning to build strong foundations in literacy and numeracy, while also fostering curiosity, creativity and a love of learning.
We celebrate our rich cultural identity, with cultural pride woven into daily school life, helping all students grow in respect, understanding and confidence. Bellambi is more than just a school – it is a close and supportive community where students, families and staff work together, share in success, and form meaningful connections that often last a lifetime.
