Principal's Message
WELCOME FROM MR IEROIANNI
North Rocks Public School is a great school with a strong reputation for excellence and developing students into active, high-achieving, and well-adjusted young citizens.
I extend a warm welcome to all families joining us in the coming year and am very proud to be the Principal of this wonderful school. It is a privilege to work with our students, our staff and our families each day and to make our school the very best it can be.
The school is in a beautiful, leafy region of North-West Sydney and enjoys excellent community support. We aim to create a safe, nurturing yet challenging environment that is built on positive relationships, developing the whole student – emotionally, socially, and academically. We care for and appreciate each of our students as unique individuals with distinct talents, interests and needs. As such, North Rocks Public School delivers a stimulating curriculum that is flexible and tailored to each student as we strive for high educational outcomes and personal best. Our passionate teachers support students to grow in confidence and develop the skills required to succeed and thrive in a rapidly changing world.
Engaging and academically rigorous learning programs that cater for individual differences are devised and delivered by our highly skilled, talented and dedicated teachers. We use innovative techniques, rich resources, proven instructional strategies and engaging programs to promote quality learning and develop in each students a curious, enquiring and discriminating mind along with a desire and capacity to become a life-long learner.
In line with the school motto “Truth and Knowledge”, we aim for each student to leave school with the values of respect, cooperation, persistence and striving for excellence underpinning all that they do. Through Choice Theory, our students develop responsibility for their own behaviour and the choices they make, and a shared responsibility to assist their peers to do the same. Our students become strong in self-esteem and personal expectation and develop a healthy and respectful acceptance of others.
Lots of other exciting programs such as Peer-Reading, Peer-Support, Primary School Sport Association (PSSA), Student Leadership and Kinder Buddies are also available across the school.
North Rocks Public School is a friendly, vibrant, community-minded school, whose decisions always put our students first. There are many opportunities for parental and community involvement, and we hope that through your participation and interest in your child’s education, you will also come to feel very much part of our school and its warm and generous community.
I commend North Rocks Public School to you and look forward to meeting with you and being part of your child’s leaning journey.
