Rockbank Primary School
At Rockbank Primary School each student and staff member is seen as a human first and secondly as a student, teacher, leader and the myriad of other titles.
We would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander land across Australia and pay respects to the Elders past, present and emerging. We recognise the strength, resilience and capacity of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and recognise their continuing connection to the land, waters and community.
