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
I have been the proud principal of Bega Valley PS for the past 5 years. I am privileged to be part of a team that is truly invested in the students at our school and committed to their success both academically and emotionally.
We provide many opportunities at our school so that every child can find their passion and thrive. We pride ourselves on our comprehensive Creative and Performing Arts programs and sporting opportunities where we have had students reach NSW State and National representative levels.
I am a product of Public Education from here in the Bega Valley and I am honoured to be able to give back to my community in this role.
Come for a tour and see why our school can provide the best education money can't buy.
Melissa O'Meara,
Principal of Bega Valley Public School
