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 to Junee High School.
I’m pleased to welcome you to our school website. As Relieving Principal, I value the opportunity this space provides to connect with our students, families, staff, and the wider community.
At Junee High School, we are committed to creating a supportive and inclusive environment where every student can grow and succeed, academically, socially, and personally. We take pride in offering meaningful learning experiences and a wide range of opportunities that support each student to reach their full potential.
Our focus is on encouraging students To Dream, To Create, and To Succeed. These ideas sit at the heart of our school and shape the way we approach learning and personal growth. Alongside this, our core expectations of Responsibility, Respect, and Excellence guide our daily work and interactions, helping to build a strong and positive school culture. Our motto, “By Honour to Glory,” reflects the pride we take in these values.
As you explore our website, I hope you find helpful information about our programs, activities, and events. Whether you are considering joining our school, are already part of our community, or are reconnecting as a past student, we hope this gives you a clear sense of who we are.
I am proud of what our students and staff achieve together and look forward to what lies ahead. Thank you for visiting our website and for your continued support of Junee High School.
Kind regards,
Kerrilee Logan, Relieving Principal of Junee High School
