Our principal and staff
Our school team is committed to every student’s learning, wellbeing and sense of belonging. In the classroom, office or playground, we work together to create a supportive, inclusive school where every child is set up for success.
Welcome from our principal
At Bombala High School, we are proud to be a small rural school at the heart of a strong and supportive community. Our size allows us to know every student well and to respond to their individual strengths, needs and aspirations. We are committed to providing meaningful learning experiences and opportunities that broaden horizons and open pathways for all students, regardless of location. Our curriculum is dynamic and inclusive, with an integrated Years 7–10 program and a wide range of subject options for senior students. Our dedicated staff work together to create a safe, welcoming environment where students are challenged, supported and encouraged to grow—academically, socially and personally. Bombala High School is a very special place, and we warmly invite families to be part of our school and wider rural community.
