From Our Principal to You

I am the proud Principal of Yennora Public School and a passionate advocate for public education. I firmly believe that public schools are the foundation of inclusive, high-quality learning communities that give every child the opportunity to thrive, regardless of background or circumstance.

At Yennora Public School, students are provided with learning programs that are explicit, targeted, and differentiated to meet their individual needs. We believe the wellbeing of every child is integral to all our decision-making, and this underpins the way we design our teaching and support structures.

As a student-centred school, we ensure that every learner is known, valued, and cared for, and that their academic, social, and emotional success remains at the heart of everything we do.

As a leader, I am guided by the belief that education transforms lives, and that empowering both students and teachers to reach their full potential creates a lasting impact within the community.

Ms Fay Willis, Principal of Yennora Public School
