Principal's message
Welcome to Jamisontown Public School!
I am delighted to welcome you to our vibrant school community. Jamisontown Public School is a place where every student is encouraged to learn, grow, and belong. We are proud of our history and our reputation as a warm, nurturing school situated right here in South Penrith.
Our Commitment to Excellence
Our dedicated and professional staff are committed to providing high-quality educational programs that inspire a lifelong love of learning in every child. We focus on evidence-based teaching practices, ensuring strong foundations in literacy and numeracy, while offering a comprehensive curriculum that includes technology, the performing arts, and physical education. We believe in high expectations and continually improving student learning outcomes so that every student is well-prepared for a rewarding future.
Learning, Growth, and Belonging
At Jamisontown, we foster a culture of respect, inclusion, and connectedness. We know that a child thrives when they feel safe, valued, and cared for. Our comprehensive student welfare programs, including our focus on developing care and respect for themselves and others, ensure that our students not only achieve academic success but also develop the strong social and emotional skills necessary to be confident, responsible citizens. We strive to maintain a family-like culture where all students, staff, and families feel they are a vital part of the Jamisontown team.
Community Partnership
Education is a partnership, and the strong relationship between our school and the wider community is one of our greatest strengths. I encourage you to be an active part of your child's journey with us. By working together, we can enhance a culture of high expectations and ensure the best possible learning experience for all our students.
Whether you are a prospective family exploring our school, or a current member of our community, I invite you to contact us, explore our website, and discover why Jamisontown Public School is such a wonderful place to learn.
We look forward to partnering with you.
