Welcome

Grant Keleher (Principal)

As principal, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the Central Yorke School website. While our site provides lots of information about the school, its programs, newsletters, activities and other relevant information, it won’t be able to answer all your questions, so I encourage you to contact us so we are able to more fully respond to your questions.

Central Yorke School supports students from Birth to Year 12, across two campuses – Maitland and Point Pearce – whilst using innovative learning practices to empower them to achieve their full potential as successful and valued members of their communities. Our staff take great pride in providing a safe and secure learning environment, whilst at the same time providing a full range of dynamic and challenging academic and extracurricular programs.

At Central Yorke we are learning together, and making a difference.
