About The Principal – Jane Wescott

Principal Jane Wescott has a strong investment in the ‘whole child.’ She aims to provide opportunities for students to succeed academically, and to flourish in their personal development. Principal Wescott says,

“I’m passionate about every child learning to believe in themselves and their capacity to achieve more than they ever thought they were capable.  I have high expectations of everyone in our school community and am committed to students achieving academic excellence, whilst also prioritising the development of the skills needed to be active and resilient citizens.  I strongly believe in the importance of students being explicitly taught how to learn; and how to critically analyse, retain and apply what they have learned.”

After working in leadership roles in other industries, Jane became a teacher when her children were very young. She has thoroughly enjoyed teaching in both country and metropolitan schools. In the last 10 years, she has also worked as a Deputy Principal and Principal in multiple schools. Jane is passionate about embedding research-proven strategies into the schools and is committed to lifelong learning through post graduate studies.

About The Treeby Primary Logo

The Treeby Primary School Logo consists of two adjoining images of a gem and a leaf. The gem image is reflective of the school site, which was previously a mineral sand mine, reflected in the surrounding streets, named after precious gems. The gem symbol also reflects the diverse community coming together to build connections and help students shine. The leaf is connected to the Treeby family’s market garden established in 1895 and the veins on the leaf demonstrate that while the rates of growth amongst children differ, they all belong to make each other stronger.
