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
Welcome to Heathcote East Public School.
At our school, we hold high expectations for every learner and are committed to helping each child reach their full potential. We believe that strong partnerships between students, staff, and families create the foundation for success, and we work together to nurture a respectful, inclusive and supportive environment.
Our focus on explicit teaching and high-quality learning programs ensures that students build strong skills in literacy and numeracy, while our wellbeing practices encourage confidence, resilience and a love of learning. We want our students to feel challenged, inspired, and proud of their achievements.
I am incredibly proud of our dedicated staff and the way our community works together to provide the best opportunities for all children. I invite you to explore our website and see what makes Heathcote East Public School a special place to learn and grow.
