Some of our latest news
Dear school community members,
I am pleased to advise that I have recently signed a new five-year principal contact at Buxton Primary School, ending in January 2030.
I love our school and am very proud of what we have achieved together in the last four and a half years. I look forward to continuing to work with our students, staff, parents and carers, and the local community to build on what we have in place now and continue to strengthen our school.
I am committed to continuous improvement for Buxton PS, with a focus on:
- Providing a safe, inclusive and supportive environment where all learners and community members feel valued for their unique strengths and qualities
- Targeted and differentiated learning programs that enable all students to reach their potential and view themselves as capable learners
- Maintaining or steadily increasing enrolments without losing the small school 'feel' that makes our community special
- Continuous development of my own and my team's professional knowledge and skills to support student learning and wellbeing
- Having lots of fun and joyful moments along the way!
Kind regards,
Sarah Irving
Principal
