Karrendi Primary School

At Karrendi Primary School, we envision a school community that embraces reconciliation through a deep and genuine commitment to cultural responsiveness and respect for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, histories, cultures, and perspectives. 

We are dedicated to creating a culturally safe environment where every student, staff member, and family feels valued, respected, and heard. Our school fosters a culture of open, honest, and respectful communication, where listening and learning from one another builds trust and strong, meaningful relationships. 

We are committed to recognising and actively dismantling stereotypes and barriers that hinder understanding and inclusion. Through ongoing reflection and education, we seek to challenge biases and promote equity in all areas of school life. 

Central to our vision is the recognition that knowledge is shared and grown through collaboration with the local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. We value the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders, community members, families, and educators in guiding our learning journey. Together, we will honour diverse ways of knowing, being, and doing, and embed these within our curriculum, pedagogy, and community practices. 

Through our Reconciliation Action Plan, we aim to nurture proud, informed, and culturally capable young people.
