Our school is special because:

"We keep it clean"

Anaphylaxis management

Individual Anaphylaxis Emergency Action Plans will be developed for all children who have been identified as at-risk of an anaphylactic reaction by their parents/guardians at school enrolment.

Attendance

Consistent student attendance is vital to maximising educational opportunity. 

Bullying

St Kilda Primary School does not tolerate bullying in any form.  All members of the St Kilda Primary School Community (students, staff and parents) have the right to a safe and caring environment which promotes learning, personal growth and positive self-esteem. The school is committed to providing this and all members share the responsibility to ensure that this occurs.

Camps

Camps are part of the St Kilda Primary School curriculum from Year 3 to 6. They aim to provide age-appropriate and increasingly challenging educational experiences. Camps are a unique and valuable opportunity for students to gain knowledge and a sense of achievement through a wide variety of activities and situations, while at the same time developing social skills, group responsibilities and independence.

Homework

Homework is actively encouraged at St Kilda Primary School.  By participating in homework the partnership between school and home is recognised by children and strengthened. Through assisting children to compete homework, families support children’s learning by reinforcing skills and knowledge in curriculum areas at home.

Inclusive Schooling

The participation of children with special educational needs, impairments and/or disabilities in mainstream schools is supported at St Kilda Primary School.  These students will be provided with individual programs that respond to their personal needs whether they are of a gifted or special needs nature.

Nutrition

The school will educate children in healthy eating behaviours and provide information to support parents.

School Uniform

The wearing of the St Kilda Primary School uniform is a formal requirement of the school. A school uniform promotes a strong sense of belonging and identity with the school and we believe that this contributes to the development of school pride and the demonstration of citizenship.

Sunsmart

Children attending St Kilda Primary School have an understanding of and adopt attitudes and practices, which will protect them from skin damage caused by ultra-violet rays.

Sustainability

St Kilda Primary School is committed to a whole-school approach to becoming a ‘sustainable school’ and demonstrates good environmental practice in day-to-day operations; including minimizing the consumption of resources, and maximising the amount of resources reused and recycled. The school recognises that apart from the broader environmental benefits, good environmental practice can have a direct financial benefit for the school and can positively influence the behaviour of students and the broader school community.
