About our school
At Warooka Primary School there’s a strong emphasis on student voice. All students are encouraged to help in leading their school – from suggesting ideas for improvements in administration and class structures, through to negotiating their learning.
Our students enjoy access to a wide range of learning tools for daily use in their learning activities. This includes cameras, iPads, laptops and smartboards.
We have a strong physical education program and a Sporting Schools program. Students can engage in a range of sporting competitions, such as:
- SAPSASA district teams and knockout events
- the school’s annual cross-country event
- sports day
- interschool sports day.
Environmental education is an important focus for our school, with students involved in a range of initiatives and activities.
