Principal’s welcome
Welcome, and thank you for your interest in our school. I am proud to be the Acting Principal of Kew High School.
We are a high-achieving coeducational government school where we believe students thrive in a challenging yet supportive academic environment. Clear communication and empathetic, nurturing relationships between students, teachers, and parents/carers are essential to our approach. We offer a stimulating environment that encourages academic excellence while fostering strong personal and social development. Our dedicated staff work closely with students and families to ensure that every learner reaches their full potential.
Our school’s ASPIRE values—Accountability, Social Equity, Participation, Integrity, Respect, and Excellence—form the foundation of our approach to learning and collaboration. Students are encouraged to take responsibility for their learning, engage with respect and integrity, and strive for excellence. These values align with our motto: Aspire, Strive, Achieve, and are reflected in the daily experiences of both our students and staff.
Kew High School has proudly served our community for over sixty years, offering a range of programs including the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE), the VCE-Vocational Major, School Based Apprentice Traineeships and Vocational Education Training subjects for senior students, as well as specialist programs for Years 7 to 10.
Students have access to a diverse array of co-curricular and enrichment programs. In addition to team sports through the School Sports Victoria program, students can participate in our renowned volleyball and Futsal programs, which have achieved national and international recognition. Our popular music and arts programs cater to all skill levels, offering numerous opportunities for involvement in displays, concerts, and presentations throughout the year. A standout event is our School Production, where students take the lead in all aspects of production and performance.
At Kew High School, we empower students to explore their interests, discover their passions, and collaborate meaningfully with others. If you have any questions or need further information, please feel free to reach out. We look forward to the opportunity to welcome you to our inclusive school community!
