Welcome from our principal

Welcome to Caringbah Public School, a proud and inclusive community where every student is known, valued, and cared for. Our students are at the heart of all we do — curious, creative, and full of potential.

We are deeply committed to providing a safe, supportive, and high-expectations learning environment, where diversity is celebrated and inclusion is a daily practice. Our dedicated staff work collaboratively to ensure every child experiences success and growth, both academically and personally.

At Caringbah, we value strong partnerships with families and the wider community, and we know that together we can achieve great things.
