Welcome from our Acting Principal

Miss Kristen Angus, School Principal

Welcome to Modbury South Primary School. My name is Kristen Angus, and it is a privilege to serve as the Acting Principal of our vibrant and diverse learning community. With a strong commitment to fostering positive and inclusive educational experiences, I am dedicated to supporting our students, staff, and families to achieve success together.

My focus is on creating a safe, supportive, and respectful environment where every student can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. I am passionate about working collaboratively with our community, valuing each child’s unique strengths and interests, and ensuring high-quality teaching and learning are at the heart of all we do.

I look forward to continuing our journey together, building on the strong foundations Modbury South Primary School is known for, and welcoming new families to our school community.

Thank you for taking the time to explore our website, and please feel free to contact me if you would like to learn more about our school.
