On behalf of the Tarneit P-9 College community, I warmly welcome you to our school. We are proud to provide a safe, supportive and inspiring environment where every child can thrive. At Tarneit P-9 College, we believe that learning is a lifelong journey and we are committed to ensuring all students have the opportunity to grow, achieve and succeed.

Our vision is guided by our core values: Learning, Pride, Responsible and inclusive. These values underpin everything we do—shaping how we learn, how we work together, and how we contribute to our wider community.

We take pride in our achievements and in celebrating the strengths of every individual. We encourage responsibility, helping our students develop the confidence to make positive choices and take ownership of their learning. We value inclusiveness, ensuring that every student and family feels a strong sense of belonging. Above all, we are passionate about fostering a love of learning that prepares our students for a successful and fulfilling future.
