Welcome from our principal
Welcome to Cromehurst School, a purpose-built, inclusive learning community where every student is valued, supported and inspired to reach their full potential.
At Cromehurst, our Positive Behaviour for Engaged Learning expectations are - Learn Together, Be Friendly, Be Safe - these guide everything we do. They reflect our belief that learning happens best when students feel connected, respected and empowered to take positive steps in their education and personal growth.
Our dedicated and passionate staff work tirelessly to provide high-quality education and care, supported by strong and collaborative partnerships with families. We are proud to be part of a vibrant community, where the connection between school and community enriches the learning experience for everyone involved. Together we celebrate each achievement big or small, as milestones on our students’ journeys toward independence and wellbeing.
We invite you to explore our website and discover the unique opportunities, programs and experiences that make Cromehurst School such a special place. It is our sincere hope that you will join us and become an integral member of The Cromehurst School community, where together we celebrate growth, achievement and belonging.
