Principal Message

I extend a warm welcome to our school community, future families, and our wider community members. I joined NDPS as Principal in January 2022 and am so proud of all the amazing work we have done so far. In such a short time we have achieved plenty; our new Foundation students are settled and progressing well, student leadership team have grown and have made some exciting improvements in how we do things. Our Science of Reading work has cemented staff understandings of effective pedagogy, and we have updated our Assessment Schedule to ensure we teach to student needs in the moment. We’ve held lots of fantastic events, excursions and sporting activities. Our students are challenged and supported to be the best version of themselves possible, through excellent classroom practice and tiered intervention support.

Narrawong District Primary School prides itself on the relationships we build and learning that is based on evidence based research. We are a forward thinking staff that ensure we move with the times to provide a first class education to our most precious resource; our children and the future they deserve.

We are committed to student, staff and community wellbeing through the Resilience Project and daily explicit wellbeing strategies. We are supported by school values- RESPECT, KINDNESS and RESPONSIBILITY.

We have three social media outlets that support our information giving to our wider community and current families. Our website provides general information about our school and our direction for learning and teaching. We have a closed FaceBook page which is used to give ‘up to date’ pictures and information about what is going on form day to day in our school. We use the SkoolBag app as our information giving source and encourage all families to use this application. Our weekly newsletters are posted through SkoolBag.

We welcome you to visit our school and see for yourselves what we are all about. Tours can be booked through the office on 5529 5375. You will be led by our fantastic student leaders and see our award winning facilities, programs being taught and educational opportunities here at Narrawong District Primary School.
