About Us:

The school motto: Together Everyone Achieves More (TEAM) has been a cornerstone of the values that underpin the school and the close connection it enjoys with the local community. With its enthusiastic students, supportive parents, motivated and talented staff, state-of-the-art facilities and a positive learning environment, Northern Beaches State High School is a great place to be!
