We are committed to excellence, and developing students who display the character strengths that make them quality people and lifelong learners.


Welcome to the Barwon Heads Primary School website. We hope you enjoy learning about our wonderful school community.
I am proud and privileged to be the Principal at Barwon Heads PS as well as, like you being a member of the community.
The students at BHPS are wonderful people with many strengths and talents that are embraced by our dedicated staff who connect together with the best outcomes for our students in mind.
We are committed to excellence, and developing students who display the character strengths that underpin our Positive Education Model – Positive Emotions, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning and Accomplishment.
Our school is committed to building and maintaining a strong learning culture that recognises and celebrates student successes in different ways acknowledging academic success (our core business), the arts, sport, student leadership, as well as social and emotional development.
There is a strong emphasis on the teaching Reading Writing and Maths at Barwon Heads PS. These key elements of learning are well supported through a balanced program that includes developing world knowledge via inquiry units of work, specialist subjects and learning opportunities in the community.
Explore our website for all the information you need or contact us at the school if we can assist you in any other way.
