    Principal’s speech

    Christopher Coyle

    We strongly believe that all children can be successful. We offer a personal and flexible approach to meeting the needs of our students, helping them to become confident, independent and resilient learners who are supported and enabled to achieve their best in all aspects of life.

    We pride ourselves on building positive relationships with others. Our school is more than a place where children receive an education, it’s a community in which children, families and staff are connected, share values and feel a sense of positive well-being and belonging.

    We are committed to providing a vibrant and enriching educational environment for students to flourish. Our school creates safe, challenging and exciting learning within modern flexible spaces and also maximizes a range of opportunities outside of the classroom.

    Our highly skilled teachers are both nurturing and knowledgeable about supporting children to learn. They ensure an education that is relevant and meaningful, developing caring and curious global citizens who make a positive difference to the world.

    We are an authorised International Baccalaureate (IB) World School and use the Primary Years Program (PYP). Students learn through an inquiry approach where they are encouraged to explore concepts and ideas that are meaningful and relevant to their lives. We embrace the diversity of cultures within our internationally minded community, and our students aim to make a positive difference.

    When you join Glenealy, you join a community of like-minded people who all want to ensure that every child can be the best that they can be. We look forward to supporting your child to flourish and providing them with an exceptional learning experience.

    If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us.
