Educational Philosophy
Education at St Kilda Primary School is a dynamic journey which encompasses the process of acquiring knowledge, skills, dispositions and understanding through a safe, predictable and supportive environment. Together, we nurture an individual’s academic, personal, and social development by empowering them to think critically, act responsibly, and engage effectively with the world. At St Kilda Primary School, we believe in transforming potential into purpose, inspiring our children to contribute positively to the world.
St Kilda Primary School is committed to providing a safe, supportive and inclusive environment for all students, staff and members of our community. We recognise the importance of the partnership between our school and parents and carers to support student learning, engagement and wellbeing. We share a commitment to, and a responsibility for, creating an inclusive and safe school environment for our students.

At St Kilda Primary School we believe in putting the students at the centre of all our work. Our staff endeavour to ensure that each child receives the educational experience that will allow them to flourish according to their own strengths and abilities.
We are committed to providing our students with the skills and resilience that they will need in the future. We have a strong focus on developing literacy and numeracy skills as well as deepening students’ knowledge and understanding of the world around them.
How do we work to achieve this?
We believe that working as a team is the best way to achieve our school goals and ideals. There are many different teams who work together across our school to support our students and their families.
Every four years we review our work and our success and create a School Strategic Plan which guides our work for the next four years. See our current School Strategic Plan for 2024-2026 here.
Each year we review our progress and create an Annual Implementation Plan which focuses our work on key areas at school and sets goals and targets in regards to student learning and wellbeing. See our current Annual Implementation Plan here.
Our Annual Report reflects our previous year’s achievements and progress based our school’s overall performance and provides an explanation of the impact of school improvement efforts on student outcomes. See our Annual Report here.
