Principal's Foreword

Townsville Primary School (光洋小学)
A Vibrant School • Leaders of Character • Learners for Life

As we begin 2026, we carry forward the Townsville spirit with renewed purpose and passion. Each year brings fresh opportunities for every child to shine and every experience to shape character.

Our vision - A Vibrant School • Leaders of Character • Learners for Life - continues to guide us. In this vibrant school, we remain committed to creating a dynamic, engaging environment where learning comes alive, curiosity is sparked and every student contributes to making school life joyful and meaningful.

Leaders of Character reminds us that academic excellence must be grounded in values. Through our iDARE2 values of Integrity, Diligence, Aspiration, Respect, Empathy and Excellence, our students learn to act with courage, compassion and conviction. Learners for Life captures our belief that education extends beyond the classroom, cultivating adaptable, inventive thinkers who stay curious, open-minded and ready to embrace the opportunities and challenges.

Guided by our mission to Ignite Learning, Maximise Potential, Nurture the Child, we continue to provide authentic, purposeful learning experiences that empower students to discover their passions and grow in confidence. We seek always to bring out the best in every child, in their intellect, heart and hands.

In 2026, we continue to strengthen the partnerships between home, school and community. Together, we will build a school where every child learns well, lives well and leads with character – a place where hearts are kind, minds are curious and actions shine with purpose.

Here’s to another year of vibrancy, growth and shared purpose — where we keep the Townsville (光洋) beam shining bright!
