Welcome from our principal

I’m excited to welcome you to our school, where we create a supportive environment for every child to thrive. We value respect, curiosity and teamwork.

We’re proud of our dedicated staff and strong partnerships with families. Together, we ensure students feel valued and inspired to learn.

At Narrabeen North you will find happy and engaged students who enjoy being taught by teachers who demonstrate a high level of care and interest in children as individuals, with an emphasis on their academic, social, physical and emotional wellbeing.

Our students are curious, compassionate, articulate, responsible, and display a strong sense of community. The school’s priority is to see every child reach their potential through a culture that promotes excellence, equality and high expectations.

The school is ‘future focused’ and we use critical thinking, problem-solving skills and technology to prepare students for a fast changing and evolving world.

I invite you to explore our website to discover what makes our school special. We look forward to welcoming you into our community.
