Our School

Kambalda Primary School stands out as a nurturing and vibrant educational environment located in the heart of Kambalda, Western Australia. What makes our school unique is its strong sense of community where students, families, and staff work collaboratively to foster an inclusive atmosphere. Catering to students from kindergarten through to Year 6, we provide a comprehensive education that supports the developmental needs of young learners. Our school’s ethos emphasises respect, responsibility, and resilience, reflecting our commitment to nurturing well-rounded individuals who are prepared for the future. Nestled in a picturesque area, the school benefits from a close-knit community that enhances the learning experience for all students.

At Kambalda Primary School, we pride ourselves on our dedicated, experienced teaching staff. Our educators bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the classroom, with many having years of teaching experience. They are passionate about fostering a love for learning and are committed to professional development, ensuring they stay current with best practices in education. This dedication translates into high-quality teaching, tailored to meet the diverse needs of our students. We offer a range of specialist programs designed to enrich the educational experience, and students have access to specialist subjects such as Information Technology, Visual Arts, Physical Education, and Languages, allowing them to explore their interests and talents. Additionally, we provide extension programs for gifted and talented students, ensuring they are challenged and engaged in learning. These programs foster critical thinking and creativity, equipping students with the skills needed for future success.

Our school strongly emphasises values and pastoral care, recognising the importance of supporting students’ emotional and social well-being. We implement programs that teach students about respect, empathy, and cooperation. Our pastoral care initiatives include mentoring and support systems that encourage positive relationships among students and staff, helping to create a safe and nurturing environment conducive to learning. We maintain high expectations for all students. We encourage them to take responsibility for their learning, demonstrate respect for themselves and others, and strive for personal excellence. Students are expected to engage actively in their education, participate in school activities, and contribute positively to the school community. By fostering a culture of accountability, we prepare our students to become responsible and active members of society.

Kambalda Primary School has undergone several improvements to enhance the learning environment in recent years. We have upgraded our facilities, including new classrooms equipped with modern technology to support interactive learning. Our school also boasts an extensive outdoor area, providing students with spaces for play and recreation. These enhancements reflect our commitment to providing a stimulating and supportive environment for all learners.

We offer students opportunities to be involved in sporting and academic activities with other schools in Kambalda and the Goldfields region throughout the year. Our strong community partnerships in Kambalda—with local businesses, government agencies, community organisations, and individuals engaging with us for various learning opportunities— support our well-developed culture of community and pride in our school.
