Welcome to Meredith Primary School. It is a genuine privilege to be part of such a warm, caring, and connected community where every child is truly known, valued, and supported.

One of the things that makes Meredith Primary School so special is the strong relationships that exist across our school community. Every staff member knows and cares for every single student, and our students know they are surrounded by adults who want them to succeed, both academically and personally. There is a strong sense of belonging here, and the positive partnerships between staff, students, and families create an environment where children feel safe, confident, and supported to thrive.

I bring more than 20 years of experience in education, having worked in both primary and P–12 school settings throughout Victoria. Alongside my leadership roles within schools, I have also supported schools across our network and beyond to implement Disability Inclusion reforms and strengthen inclusive practices for students. I am passionate about inclusive education, student wellbeing, and creating opportunities for every child to flourish. I believe all students deserve to feel successful, challenged, and supported in their learning journey, and I am committed to ensuring each child has the opportunity to reach their full potential.

At Meredith Primary School, we are proud to provide rich and varied opportunities for our students. Whether it is through classroom learning, sport, camps, arts, leadership, wellbeing programs, or community events, we encourage every child to explore their interests, develop confidence, and build a lifelong love of learning. Our dedicated staff consistently go above and beyond to create meaningful experiences and strong learning outcomes for all students.

As a family focused school, we highly value the partnerships we build with parents and carers. We know that when schools and families work together, children achieve their best outcomes. Our community is welcoming, supportive, and deeply invested in the success and wellbeing of every child.

I feel incredibly proud to be part of Meredith Primary School and look forward to continuing to work alongside our wonderful students, staff, and families.

See you at the front gate!
