Award system

Every student has strengths and are acknowledge for application and talent. The awards system at Bronte Public School recognises and celebrates student effort, achievement, and positive behaviour. It encourages students to strive for their personal best, show respect, and contribute to a positive school culture. Awards are given consistently across the school to promote a sense of pride, motivation, and belonging.

House names

Belonging to a school house fosters a sense of pride, connection, and teamwork. It builds community across year levels, encourages friendly competition, and helps students feel included and supported within the wider school environment. At Bronte Public School, our house names were created in collaboration with Mr Hansen from the Gujaga Foundation recognising and respecting the rich cultural heritage of our area.

Wuriwuri (red) means sunlight and heat from a fire.

Gamarama (green) was the area Dharawal people described which covered Bronte, Tamarama (where it gets its name from today) and Bondi.

Bunnerong (blue) means running water or a stream.

Baliya (yellow) is the Dharawal word for the Northeast Wind.

SRC

The Student Representative Council at Bronte Public School plays a key role in fostering student voice, leadership, and wellbeing across the school community. Elected representatives from each class collaborate to share student perspectives, propose meaningful initiatives, and contribute to a positive and inclusive school environment.
