Principal's Welcome

Kaya and welcome to Northam Primary School.

At Northam Primary School, we are proud to learn, grow, and connect on Ballardong Noongar booja (country). We acknowledge and respect the Ballardong Noongar people as the Traditional Custodians of this land and are committed to fostering an inclusive and culturally responsive learning environment for all.

We recognise that student success is built on a foundation of wellbeing, belonging, and high expectations. Our approach ensures that every child, from Kindergarten to Year Six, is valued as an individual and supported to reach their full social, emotional, and academic potential. We know that when students feel safe, respected, and engaged, they thrive in their learning and all aspects of life.

As an independent public school with a clear vision, we cultivate a positive school culture where staff, students, and families work together to uphold high standards and aspirations. Our dedicated educators are highly skilled and committed professionals who create the conditions for students to succeed. We align our teaching with our Moral Purpose:

"Providing a high-quality education that fosters a love of learning and empowers students to succeed."

Beyond the classroom, we are fortunate to be supported by an active and engaged school community. Our School Board and Parents and Citizens Association play vital roles in enhancing school governance, providing resources and strengthening the inclusive, supportive culture that makes Northam Primary School such a special place.

Together, we work to ensure that every child's experience at Northam Primary School is not only enriching but also memorable. We invite you to visit, explore our school, and discover the many opportunities available for your child.

I look forward to meeting you and welcoming you into our school community.
