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

Welcome students and parents to the Bathurst High Campus of Denison College of Secondary Education and the Bathurst community. Our school provides a broad curriculum with well-established learning support structures to ensure that all students are supported to reach their academic potential.

Bathurst High Campus has a highly skilled and committed teaching staff. Their focus is maximising the learning outcomes for every student. I have high expectations of all students at Bathurst High Campus as they strive to achieve their academic best. My aim is to work in partnership with all members of the school community to develop a learning culture where all students achieve success. I will endeavour to support teachers professionally in developing a generation of confident, innovative, creative, and inspired learners who are responsible and productive global citizens. I expect that students will display the values we promote – honesty, integrity, and tolerance.

I would encourage you to take advantage of the wide range of opportunities made available at Bathurst High Campus and I look forward to working closely with you and your teachers as you progress and develop at this outstanding school.

Our school provides many cultural, social, and physical learning opportunities through quality learning and assessment practices in a safe, respectful environment.

As principal, I am proud of the ongoing commitment of our Year Advisers and Wellbeing Teams. Their level of care and compassion for their students is to be commended. Year Advisers provide the first point of contact for students and their parents in regard to welfare issues at school. The staff at Bathurst High Campus take pride in ensuring we provide a quality education, and I would encourage you to make the most of your time at our great school and set high goals for your own education.
