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 Beelbangera Public School!
The core motto of our school is to “Strive for the Best”; to try your hardest and be the best that you can be in every facet of your life.
Our focus is to provide positive learning opportunities for every child from Kindergarten to Year 6, imparting children with the necessary skills, independence and discipline needed to succeed in life.
We take pride in our ability to recognise and demonstrate the improvement of growth in learning for each individual child, irrespective of perceived ability. For the teachers of Beelbangera Public School, our discussions are not about what children can’t do, but what they can.
Our school is a place where children, staff and community share in the joys of learning. We invite you to visit us at any time. We welcome your help in our classrooms and invite you to become involved in the many and varied programs we have within our school.
We invite you to become a member of our Parents and Citizens’ Association—it is a wonderful way to meet people and to keep in touch with what is happening in your child’s school.
We look forward to working with you to develop a strong partnership between school and home so we can celebrate your child’s learning achievements together.
Kristie Seria, Principal of Beelbangera Public School
