Mount Waverley Heights Primary School
Message from the Principal
‘Connect, Challenge, Inspire ’ – Being part of our school is about being part of a real community – a school where everyone knows each other’s names, where teachers know all the students and where lifelong friendships grow. Our community represents a diverse range of cultures. We work hard at building cultural understanding – because a sense of belonging and understanding is what weaves and connects us together. At MWHPS we have a brilliant wellbeing program that emphasises our core school values – Be Responsible, Be Respectful and Be Inclusive.
