Dear Parents and Carers,
Unanderra Public School has a long, proud history of service to its community stretching back 140 years. It relocated to the hills of Cordeaux Heights in 1999. Our beautiful school provides a highly engaging quality education where every student is known, valued and cared for. The teachers are dedicated and committed to ensure that lessons are differentiated to meet the needs of all students within a positive and harmonious learning environment.
Unanderra Public School embraces a shared vision of connectedness that strengthens the capacity of students to promote their emotional, mental and physical wellbeing. Our dynamic and innovative public school considers the values of Safety, Responsibility and Respect to be paramount for the successful implementation of learning and teaching experiences.
Unanderra Public School is future-focused and actively ensures that students have a voice and are at the centre of all decision making. Our staff and whole school community enthusiastically work in partnership to provide rich and diverse opportunities to empower students to develop as responsible citizens and lifelong learners.
We are proud of the Aboriginal history of our area and acknowledge that our school is built on Dharawal land. We are committed to learning in partnership with our extended community by sharing stories and walking together on Country to send children into the world who will influence and advocate for true reconciliation.
The Unanderra Public School vision is embedded within the school's motto 'Strive to Achieve'. This shared vision fosters relational trust, lifelong wellbeing and supportive leadership, so that the students, staff and wider school community can connect, succeed and thrive. Our school is proudly located on Dharawal Country with a strong focus on unconditional belonging, aspirational goals and student wellbeing. The dedicated teachers provide a variety of engaging learning experiences that promote critical thinking and are differentiated and future focused to meet the specific needs of the whole child. High expectations for learning and behaviour form the basis of our whole-school approach to creating a positive and productive environment.
