Barayip Primary School is in Tarneit, as part of Wyndham. We acknowledge the Bunurong people of the Kulin Nation, who are the Traditional Owners of the land where we gather and pay our respects to Elders past and present. We recognise their continued connection to Country and their role in caring for and maintaining Country and waterways over thousands of generations. We tread lightly on this land, as it holds all our stories of our Grandmothers and Grandfathers and spiritual connections to Country. May their strength and wisdom be with us today and always.

We are inviting outstanding humans, who show gratitude, love of learning, social intelligence, teamwork and kindness in all they do, to apply for the role of Assistant Principal, at our most wonderful school.
