Message from the Principal

Dear Parents, Students, and Staff,

As Principal of Mannering Park Public School, I feel incredibly privileged to lead such a diverse and dynamic school community. I am so proud of the way we embrace and celebrate diversity and inclusion, making our school a place where every student feels valued and supported.

At Mannering Park Public School, we are committed to fostering a positive and respectful school culture through restorative practices. By focusing on building strong relationships, open communication, and accountability, we help students develop essential social and emotional skills. Our approach encourages problem-solving, empathy, and a sense of responsibility, ensuring that all students feel safe, valued, and supported in their learning environment.

Wellbeing programs such as WHIN, High Potential and Gifted Education through providing opportunities in sport, dance and robotics and our strong focus on teacher collective efficacy help us ensure that every student has the support they need to succeed, thrive, and grow.

In the classroom, we focus on explicit teaching of phonics, the use of decodable readers, differentiated mathematics, and student wellbeing. Our goal is to provide a well-rounded education that prepares our students for the challenges and opportunities ahead.

Thank you for trusting us with your child’s education. We look forward to working together to ensure the best possible outcomes for every student at our school.

Sincerely,

Melanie Elks
Principal
