A Warm Welcome From the Principal
Welcome to Terrigal Public School. I feel incredibly proud to lead such a warm, caring and dynamic school community where every child is encouraged to shine. At Terrigal, learning is celebrated, curiosity is nurtured, and students are supported to grow academically, creatively and personally within a safe and inclusive environment.
My philosophy as a principal is that through all of the wonderful work we do in classrooms and across the school, and through the many opportunities offered, we are setting students up with the knowledge, skills and confidence to prepare them for success in an ever-changing world.
Just as importantly, I hope that every student leaves our school kinder because of the values they have been taught and that underpin everything we do at Terrigal Public School. I want our students to show understanding and empathy, to be accepting of others, and to appreciate that it’s our differences that make us all special and unique.
Terrigal Public School is a place where students feel a true sense of belonging, where families are valued partners, and where staff are deeply committed to helping every child reach their full potential. It’s a joy and a privilege to be part of such a wonderful community.
I invite you to explore our website and experience the sense of community that makes our school so special. We look forward to welcoming you and your family into our caring and connected school community.

Rel. Principal of Terrigal Public School
