Richard Gill School-Where Every Child Finds Their Voice
At Richard Gill School, we’re doing things differently. Inspired by the vision of Richard Gill AO, we believe that music and physical activity are the heartbeat of a great education. As a first-of-its-kind primary school for our regional community, we bring creativity into every classroom. Whether it’s English, Mathematics or STEAM, our passionate and highly-skilled educators use the arts to ignite curiosity and help students thrive in all learning areas.

Through music and movement, let us flourish
Richard Gill
“We teach music because it is unique and good. We teach music so that children can make their own music. We teach music because it acts in a unique way on the heart, mind, soul and spirit of the child, stimulating thought and imagination in very special ways. These are the real reasons for teaching music.” Richard Gill AO
ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF COUNTRY
At Richard Gill School, we create and learn on the beautiful lands of the Wonnarua and Kamilaroi people. Long before our school was here, these hills and waters were filled with the songs, stories, and dance of the Traditional Owners. We acknowledge their deep, enduring connection to this Country and pay our heartfelt respects to Elders past, present, and the young leaders emerging in our community today. We are honored to continue the tradition of storytelling and song on this land.
