Our principal and staff
Our school team is committed to every student’s learning, wellbeing and sense of belonging. We work together to create a supportive and inclusive school where every child is set up for success.
Welcome from our principal
To the Liverpool Girls High School Community
With Mrs Gonano being successful in her appointment as the new Principal of the soon to be merged, and yet to be named "Liverpool High School", I have stepped into the Acting Principal role. It is a genuine honour and privilege to continue serving this community as Acting Principal of our exceptional school. I will remain in this position through to the planned school merge in 2028.
I am immensely proud to lead a team of passionate, talented and dedicated staff who share a deep commitment to our students and their futures. Together, we will continue to hold high expectations, pursue excellence and create opportunities for every student to thrive, grow and achieve their aspirations.
The years ahead will bring both opportunities and change, and I look forward to embracing them together as a strong and united school community. Most importantly, I look forward to celebrating our students, supporting our staff and building on the proud traditions, achievements and spirit that has always made our school such a special place.
