Fernhill School
Independence through learning
The Fernhill School difference
A strong start
Our school has a culture of high expectations and quality teaching practice, ensuring every student has the confidence and skills to achieve their learning potential.
Growth in the classroom and beyond
All students are valued and supported to develop their independence through quality learning opportunities, building confidence, skills and character to maximise their potential at school and beyond.
Focus on individualised learning
To enable engagement in learning, every student needs both a robust communication system and individualised regulation strategies so they can connect, succeed, thrive, and learn. All students receive explicit and differentiated instruction tailored to their individual learning needs.
Welcome to Fernhill School
Independence through learning
At Fernhill School we believe all students have the potential to learn and communicate effectively. Our community builds connections between staff, students and families to provide the supports students need to gain independence.
Principal's message
At Fernhill School, students are at the heart of everything we do. Communication, learning and wellbeing are at the core of each and every day, ensuring that every child feels valued, supported and ready to learn.
We know strong schools are built on strong relationships, so we prioritise genuine partnerships with families and community organisations to create the richest learning opportunities.
We strongly believe in the potential of every student to achieve their learning goals, and set high and achievable goals for each and every learner.
Our aim is for every child to not only learn, but to thrive - academically, socially and emotionally, in a school community that knows them, values them and believes in them.
Julie Raciborska, Principal of Fernhill School
