Welcome from our principal
Welcome to Parramatta North Public School, where every student is known, valued, and cared for. We are deeply committed to providing high-quality teaching in literacy and numeracy within an inclusive and supportive environment that celebrates the unique potential of each child.
Our explicit teaching and differentiated programs are thoughtfully designed to inspire and challenge all learners, equipping them with the skills and confidence to thrive in a rapidly evolving world. We also offer specialised enrichment programs, sporting opportunities, and a rich variety of creative and performing arts experiences, including band, dance, choir, and drumming.
At the heart of our success is a passionate and dedicated staff who work collaboratively to foster a culture of excellence, inclusion, and genuine care. We strongly believe in the power of partnership and invite parents and carers to connect with us at any time — your questions, feedback, and involvement are always welcome as we work together to support every student’s growth and wellbeing.
At Parramatta North Public School, we are proud to serve our community by delivering quality teaching within a nurturing and caring environment where every student can flourish.
I invite you to explore our website to discover what makes our school special. We look forward to welcoming you into our community.
