Our principal and staff
Our school team is committed to every student’s learning, wellbeing and sense of belonging. We work together to create a supportive and inclusive school where every child is set up for success.
Welcome from our principal
“Primbee Public is a small school with a big heart, and I am so proud of the supportive community that we have fostered here. At Primbee, every child is known by every teacher, and our smaller class sizes mean we can give each student the attention and support they need to truly thrive, not just in their learning, but in their confidence, friendships, and personal growth.
I invite you to explore our website to discover what makes our school special. We look forward to welcoming you into our community.”
Alicia Hodges, Principal of Primbee Public School
