Welcome from our principal

“Welcome to Millers Forest Public School! We’re a warm and welcoming community where every student is supported to shine in a safe and caring environment. Our goal is to help each child become confident, curious, and ready to take on the challenges of tomorrow.

Our passionate staff work hand-in-hand with families and community members to create exciting learning opportunities that focus on kindness, respect, and being responsible learners. By encouraging everyone to be safe and thoughtful, we make sure Millers Forest is a happy place where students love to learn and grow.

We know every child is special and learns in their own way. That’s why we focus on making learning personal, fun, and engaging. Together, we spark curiosity and build skills that will last a lifetime.

Take a look around our website to learn more about what makes our school such a great place to be. We’re excited to welcome you into our Millers Forest family and can’t wait to see all the wonderful things we’ll achieve together."
