Our School

It is with great enthusiasm and a warm heart that I welcome you to Marlborough Primary School. As the principal, I consider it an honour to lead this caring and dedicated community of educators and learners.

I enjoy working alongside my staff every day to strive for excellence in all of our students. We hold both ourselves and the children to high standards and work hard to ensure everyone has the opportunity to achieve their personal best.

I am passionate about all students achieving their version of excellence in education. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to make an impact in many schools across the state. Before joining Marlborough Primary, I worked across Victorian schools in the Government, Private, and Catholic sectors. In my roles, I supported school leaders and coached teachers to improve student learning outcomes in many different schools. Creating environments that help students achieve success has been, and remains, one of the reasons I love working in education.

Alongside the pursuit of academic excellence, the social and emotional development of each child is equally important. Understanding oneself, maintaining a healthy state of wellbeing, and developing the skills and dispositions for productive and enriching relationships are seen as essential learning at our school. Through the school values of Respect, Responsibility, and Inclusivity, our children don’t just become good students; they become good people.

My hope is that when students are ready to leave Marlborough and move into secondary education, they will approach this new challenge with confidence and optimism about what the future has to offer. To achieve this, I look forward to continuing to work alongside the community to ensure that Marlborough Primary School is the school of choice for our current and prospective families.
