The safety and well-being of our students are of paramount importance to us. We maintain a safe and supportive school environment where every child feels valued, respected, and included. Our dedicated staff members are committed to providing a nurturing atmosphere that promotes positive relationships and social, emotional development. 

Merewether Public School is a Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL) School, which ensures everyone – students, staff, families and the school community - is on the same page to create a safe and supportive learning environment for all students.

STRONG COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT 

Merewether Public School brings together students from a variety of family backgrounds and dynamics, which offers the benefit of a diverse community. We strongly believe in the power of community, and we foster strong partnerships between students, parents, teachers and the wider community. 

We have an active Parents and Citizens’ Association (P&C) which initiates an array of school activities and events, which not only raise money for the school but also help to create a strong sense of belonging and shared responsibility for the success of our students.
