Principal's Welcome

Viewbank College is an outstanding government school which provides excellent opportunities and outcomes for students.  We hope that being part of the Viewbank College community is a positive experience for your family and particularly, for your child.   

The College is committed to continual improvement, ensuring rich and relevant learning and providing a safe and supportive learning environment. The curriculum focus is designed to promote individual student growth and ensure that all students are challenged and supported to achieve their potential. Years 7 to 9 students have the opportunity to explore and experience a vast range of subjects towards informing their choices for successful outcomes in later years. 

The College offers extensive co-curricular programs and lunchtime activities, encouraging students to develop stronger connections to their college, peers and teachers.  Students through these experiences can explore their interests and talents. 

The College has a vertical House system that enhances connection. We have a Middle Years Leadership Program that mirrors the Senior Student Leadership Team.  This builds on leadership opportunities already available through the SRC and Middle Years Council.  The College values student voice and openly encourages students in Years 7 and 8 to be involved in leadership and look towards becoming a Middle Years Leader in Year 9. 

The College motto ‘Caring for Excellence’ very much promotes the concept of a caring College where the expectation is that each student needs to work towards personal excellence.
