From the Kempsey Primary School
Being the head teacher at Kempsey Primary School, a very unique institution, is both humbling and fortunate to me.
Our kids are absolutely special.
With our students, we promote a growth mentality and show them how the word "yet" can change how they feel.
We want our students to leave us at the conclusion of Year 6 as content, well-rounded individuals who are eager to move on to the next level of their education.
As a school, we highly value the diversity and expertise of our Governing Body since they are all committed to making KPS the best it can be.
Our success depends greatly on our parents.
Because we think that a child's success depends on the relationship between home and school, we urge parents to get involved in their children's education.
We value parents' contributions to school life and regard them as partners in their children's education.
The personnel at this institution is without a doubt the greatest I've ever had the pleasure of working with.
All of the staff members have a strong sense of teamwork and a sense that we are all moving in the same direction and caring about the same things for our students and school.
We therefore want the early years of our children's lives to be enchanting and full of memorable learning opportunities.
