Welcome to Marnebek School!

Marnebek School is proud to foster a thriving community of students across our two campuses, supported by a dedicated team of passionate teaching and educational support staff.

Guided by our core values of Respect, Resilience, and Responsibility, we provide a supportive and engaging learning environment where every student is encouraged to achieve their personal best. Our curriculum is designed to develop academic, social, emotional, and technological skills, empowering students to build independence through personalised and age-appropriate learning experiences. At Marnebek, we believe that every student has the potential to grow and succeed.

Following a complete school rebuild across both campuses, Marnebek School now boasts purpose-built, state-of-the-art facilities designed to support our students’ diverse learning needs. Our specialist learning spaces, sensory areas, modern classrooms, and outdoor play areas create an optimal environment for student engagement, growth, and wellbeing. Technology is fully integrated into our programs, with access to digital resources such as notebooks and iPads to further enhance learning opportunities.

Our House System, named after local Indigenous animals—Gawarn (Red), Bunjil (Green), Warinj (Orange), Kuyim (Black), Walert (Blue), and Wa (Yellow)—plays a vital role in fostering teamwork, school spirit, and a strong sense of belonging. This system works closely with our School-Wide Positive Behaviour Support (SWPBS) framework to reinforce and celebrate positive behaviours across the school.

At Marnebek, student achievement and wellbeing are at the heart of everything we do. We believe that with the right support, every student can thrive, regardless of their individual challenges. By fostering Respect, Resilience, and Responsibility, we create a safe, nurturing environment where students develop confidence, build strong relationships, and celebrate their successes.

I am proud to lead an exceptional team at Marnebek School, where we continually challenge expectations and provide meaningful opportunities for students with additional learning needs to excel.
