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 North Wagga Public School

Established in 1881, North Wagga Public School has been proudly serving generations of students and families in our community. Our school motto, “Not for one but for all,” guides everything we do by ensuring every child is supported, respected, and celebrated.

We are a warm, close-knit community where students, families, and staff share a strong sense of belonging. Our school is a safe and inclusive place that values the diversity and unique strengths each child brings.

With high expectations for all, we nurture creativity, curiosity, resilience, and emotional intelligence. Our goal is to empower every student to succeed academically, socially, and emotionally, helping them grow into confident, compassionate individuals—ready to contribute both locally and globally.

Alongside solid academic foundations, students enjoy rich opportunities in sport, science, technology, and the creative and performing arts. We foster imagination, collaboration, reflection, and perseverance—skills that prepare our students for life beyond school.

In partnership with our families and the wider North Wagga community, we create a vibrant, respectful learning environment where every child is known, valued, and inspired to reach their full potential. True to our motto, we strive to ensure that our school is a place where everyone belongs, and every child thrives.

We look forward to welcoming you to North Wagga Public School and working together to make each child’s educational journey successful and fulfiling.
