Welcome from our principal
Welcome to Albury West Public School – a small school with a big heart.
At Albury West, our students are at the centre of everything we do. We pride ourselves on being a close-knit community where every student is known, valued, and supported to reach their full potential.
We are committed to providing a safe, inclusive, and high-expectations learning environment where diversity is celebrated and every student feels a sense of belonging. Our dedicated and passionate staff work collaboratively to ensure that all students experience success—academically, socially, and emotionally.
Our core values of respect, responsibility, and care guide our daily practices and help us nurture confident, resilient, and capable learners.
Strong partnerships with families and the wider community are vital to our success. We deeply value your input and encourage you to be actively involved in your child’s learning journey. Together, we can create a rich, engaging, and empowering educational experience for every student.
Thank you for being part of the Albury West community. We look forward to learning and growing together.
Warm regards,
Sharon Julien, Principal of Albury West Public School
