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 to St Peters Public School

St Peters PS is full of heart and spirit, where the pursuit of continuous improvement is embedded in its culture of inclusivity and fun. Students are given a variety of opportunities to participate in creative arts, sporting, environmental and academic programs aimed at developing the whole student.

Through these programs students have become excellent school leaders and citizens. With a highly supportive community and caring staff, St Peters Public School embodies the school motto "Grow with Knowledge" through the provision of quality education.

The school is nestled in the inner-city suburb of St Peters, being established in 1881. A lot has changed in that time, particularly in recent years. St Peters PS is thriving. I am proud to be the principal of this great school. I'm sure your children will feel welcomed and proud to be part of the St Peters PS community.
