Rachel Brown, Principal

It is a privilege to lead this exceptional school. Since my arrival at Corrimal Public School in 2024, I have been inspired by the warmth and welcoming nature of our students, staff, and community. My journey here feels destined, beginning with my transition from Radiography to teaching—the profession I have always aspired to pursue. After graduating from the University of Sydney, I was selected as a targeted graduate at Austinmer Public School. My time there was immensely rewarding, and I might have stayed indefinitely had it not been for a Principal who encouraged me to pursue further leadership opportunities. Following my role as Assistant Principal at Austinmer, I served as Assistant Principal at Woonona Public School and later as Relieving Deputy Principal. This experience led me to apply for the Principal position at Corrimal, where I have enjoyed getting to know our remarkable students, dedicated staff, and passionate community. I look forward to fostering a culture where everyone feels they belong and can achieve their goals.

In my spare time, I cherish moments with my three children and my twin sister—yes, we often get mistaken for one another! My daughter Stella studies Law and Business at the University of Wollongong, my daughter Annabelle is in Year 12, and my son Max is in Year 7. Together, we love walking our dogs and exploring the outdoors. Thank you for welcoming me into this vibrant community. I am excited about the journey ahead!
