Prestons Public School is committed to fostering a school culture that is based on the values of excellence, collaboration, inclusivity, respect, and determination. By working together with the local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community, the students, staff, and wider community aim to create a reconcilied nation. At Prestons Public School, reconciliation means showing respect for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and cultures. We acknowledge the abilities and knowledge that all stakeholders bring to the school. We recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories, cultures, and rights as an integral part of our shared identity. We encourage and celebrate our differences while exploring the sharing of cultures to unite as one strong community.
