Located 150kms from the Adelaide CBD, the school is co-located with the Pre-School, High School, TAFE and community library.
An average student population of 450 across the school year with up to 18 classes allows for wonderful cross age tutoring opportunities, curriculum sharing and specialisation. Currently Physical Education, Music and French are offered as specialist instruction areas. Student wellbeing and voice is a priority for Kadina Primary. Explicit Values Education focusing on respect, co-operation, communication, personal best and honesty connected with intentional Student Governance are facilitated by our dedicated School Counsellor. Classes are 'buddied' for a range of learning and social activities including reading, writing, computing, technology and art. This has positive effects in terms of yard behaviour and relationship building for all students involved. Literacy and Numeracy is a staff training and development focus with screening protocols identifying students with learning difficulties. The schools' Intervention and Support Programs are recognised as effective, sustainable and equitable.
