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 to Eleebana Public School!

We are proud to be a vibrant and inclusive learning community where students endeavour to do their best and feel a strong sense of belonging.

Our teachers are dedicated to providing explicit teaching that supports learning at the point of need. We offer a wide range of opportunities for students to shine; from academic growth and creative expression to sporting excellence and student leadership. High Potential and Gifted Education programs extend and challenge learners, while Aboriginal education enriches our school and deepens cultural understanding.

What makes Eleebana Public School so special is the way students, staff, and families work together. With a caring community around them, every child has the opportunity to learn, grow and succeed.
