Meet the Principal

 

Welcome to Pakenham Primary School. My vision for this facility is to create an inclusive school environment that empowers students to achieve their personal best socially, emotionally and academically.

Here at Pakenham Primary School the staff encourage a collaborative and community focussed learning environment. Our purpose is to create a learning environment where all students take responsibility for their learning in order to reach their personal best. We provide each student with the academic, social and emotional skills to become lifelong learners and successful participants in society.

The staff at Pakenham Primary School build genuine partnerships with families to ensure students are supported and encouraged to strive to achieve their personal best, demonstrate value in and respect for education, and be considerate and supportive of one another. The school employs knowledgeable, caring and innovative staff who work collaboratively to provide a range of high quality learning opportunities to stimulate and challenge the individual needs and talents of their students.

Pakenham Primary School acknowledges that the behaviour of staff, parents, carers and students has an impact on our school community and culture. We acknowledge a shared responsibility to create a positive learning environment for the children and young people at our school. Pakenham Primary School’s three school-wide expectations of Be a Learner, Be Respectful and Be Safe reinforce the positive school culture.

 

Kind Regards,

Gail Butterworth
