I have recently been appointed as principal of Gillwinga Public School. I have been impressed with the many exciting and educationally stimulating opportunities for all children from K-6. These programs equip the students with the skills, knowledge and positive values that ensure a sound foundation for life long learning. There are very strong literacy and numeracy programs within the school that cater for all children, including the gifted and talented and children requiring extra support.
We have a strong focus on the support of individual learning needs and student welfare, with ongoing programs to maintain a positive environment and ensure our students enjoy a happy, safe and stimulating experience.
Many opportunities are available for children to participate in the wider community with many of our children achieving successes at a higher level, particularly in external testing in English, mathematics, computers and science.

The transition for children entering Kindergarten in 2008 will be very smooth with the Kindergarten Orientation program already in place. Parents are encouraged to contact the school and register their pre schooler for the Kindy Tech program which will be held during term 4.
I invite parents and guardians to visit our school to discuss the many opportunities we can provide for your children.

Colette Abrahall
