Principal's Welcome

As principal of Warracknabeal Developmental School, I would like to thank you for visiting our website and taking the time to get to know our school. 

Our newly opened, purpose-built facility is part of the Warracknabeal Education Precinct, sharing the site with Warracknabeal Secondary College and Warracknabeal Primary School. 

Our professional and dedicated staff strive to create learning environments to suit each of our individual students’ needs. Programs are tailored to focus on student interests and strengths whilst creating positive learning opportunities.

Staff work in close contact with parents and caregivers to set and monitor individual student goals to facilitate the best education possible for their children.

Thank you once again for visiting our website. I welcome you to contact the school to arrange a tour of our new facility or to speak to us regarding enrolment.
