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

I’m delighted to welcome you to Parramatta East Public School — a vibrant and inclusive school where every child is known, valued, and supported to reach their full potential. Our learning community is built on our school motto – Ever Aim High and is reflected every day in our classrooms, playgrounds, and wider school culture.

At Parramatta East, we are proud of our warm and welcoming environment, where students feel safe, supported and inspired to explore their interests and strengths. Our passionate and highly skilled staff are dedicated to nurturing each child academically, socially and emotionally, and we work in close partnership with families to ensure every student thrives.

A strong sense of community is at the heart of our school. Parents and carers are deeply involved in school life — whether through classroom support, school committees, cultural events, or ongoing collaboration with staff. We truly believe that education is a shared journey, and we value the contributions of every family in shaping the life of our school.

We are also incredibly excited to be undergoing a major school upgrade that will transform our learning spaces and ensure our facilities reflect the high standard of teaching and learning that happens here every day. This redevelopment includes purpose-built, modern classrooms, collaborative learning areas, new playgrounds, and upgraded technology infrastructure. These new facilities are designed to enhance student engagement, support innovative teaching practices, and provide flexible spaces that meet the diverse needs of our learners.

This is a truly exciting time to be part of the Parramatta East community as we look to the future while honouring our proud history of excellence in education.

I invite you to explore our website and learn more about what makes Parramatta East Public School such a special place. Whether you're a prospective parent, a new student, or a returning member of our school community, we look forward to welcoming you and sharing this journey together.
