Welcome from the Principal


We are an Independent Public School and host a learning community bound by a strong values system where the social and emotional wellbeing of our students is paramount.  The experienced and committed staff at Willandra Primary School ensure high standards of achievement and student engagement. We are proud of our safe, productive and positive learning environment.

In 2014, Willandra Primary adjusted to changes in leadership. My appointment to the school was an exciting challenge. It was also a year of systemic changes in Western Australian Government Schools.  We are now operating in a different funding system and adjusting accordingly to ensure our resources are well managed and our students receive equitable funding.  2014 was the last year the Year 7 students attended our school, and from 2015 our school will host students from Kindergarten to Year 6.  

We have a strong focus on continuous whole school self-assessment and all planning for improvement is evidenced based. Because of this, emphasis on early intervention and learning support is an important factor in meeting student needs. Shared leadership across the school empowers teams in staff, students and parents to work towards our vision. Our mission statements form our strategic and operational plans which are designed  to create a positive and exciting learning environment.

The Australian Curriculum is implemented and reported upon in English, Mathematics, History and Science. Other subjects such as the Arts, Health and Physical Education, Technology, French and Humanities are also taught.  We host extra-curricular after school  activities such as Music, Sport and homework classes.  We also host a Before and After School Care facility and have a strong focus on pastoral care with the services of a Chaplain and Social worker.

In our recent Independent Public School Review, we achieved commendations for our positive school culture, our high level whole school literacy development and intervention programs. We have set targets to promote Willandra Primary School as a school of choice and a place where students feel safe and celebrate success.

My role as Principal at Willandra Primary School is a privilege and an opportunity to lead a dedicated team to make a difference to the future for our students. We look forward to sharing it with you.
