Our principal and staff

Our school team is committed to every student’s learning, wellbeing and sense of belonging. We work together to create a supportive and inclusive school where every child is set up for success.

Welcome from our principal

Caddies Creek PS is a special place, made so by our supportive families, dedicated staff, and wonderful students. We value connection, care, and community.

Our goal is to ensure every student is known, heard and supported. From Kindergarten to Year 6, we focus on building strong foundations in literacy and numeracy, while developing confident, respectful, and capable learners ready for high school and beyond.

We believe in purposeful learning—where students are engaged, passionate, and take ownership of their growth. They learn to reflect, set goals and understand how to improve, supported by evidence-based teaching in every classroom.

Beyond academics, we offer opportunities in sport, the arts and community engagement. We connect learning to real-world contexts, encouraging creativity, collaboration, critical thinking and empathy—skills essential for the future.

At Caddies, learning is a shared journey. We look forward to being part of yours.

Paul Taylor - Principal of Caddies Creek Public School
