Welcome from our principal
Welcome to Gwynneville Public School.
I am the very proud Principal of Gwynneville Public School. My name is Tenae Carroll and I feel privileged to lead such a warm, welcoming and vibrant school community.
At Gwynneville, our motto ‘A Caring School’ reflects the heart of who we are as a school community. We are committed to providing every student with a safe, inclusive and nurturing environment where they can thrive academically, socially and emotionally.
Our dedicated teachers deliver high quality, evidence-based teaching, ensuring that every child is challenged and supported to reach their full potential. With a strong focus on literacy and numeracy, alongside rich learning experiences across the key learning areas, we aim to equip our students with the knowledge, skills and confidence to succeed in an ever changing world.
Equally important is our focus on student wellbeing. We know that children learn best when they are happy, connected and confident. At Gwynneville, positive and respectful relationships are fostered across our school community, with staff, students and families working in partnership to nurture resilient, capable and compassionate learners.
Gwynneville Public School is proud of its tradition of excellence, creativity and community spirit. We continue to provide a caring and engaging environment where every child is encouraged to explore their potential, achieve success and develop a lifelong love of learning.
I warmly invite you to explore our website to learn more about the opportunities and programs we provide and to see how Gwynneville Public School is a place where we are committed to developing confident learners by providing personalised, high-quality education for every child.
Together, we grow confident learners and caring citizens prepared to make a difference.
