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

“At Lavington East Public School we work hard to ensure that our students enjoy success in their learning. Our teaching and learning programs are focussed on individual learning needs and our extra curricular activities ensure that our school community values and embraces a whole school community approach to learning.

At our school we strive to challenge our  students academically in all key learning areas and to produce students who, at the end of their time with us can achieve their learning goals and retain a
life-long love of learning.

I welcome you to our website and share with you a snapshot of what can be achieved for students in a caring, welcoming academic school community..”

Mrs Nic Williams, Principal of Lavington East Public School
