About Us

Kiewa Valley Primary School is a rural community school in the Kiewa Valley approximately 20km from Albury / Wodonga. Most of our students travel to school by bus from all points of the compass so we serve a wide range of communities.

 

At Kiewa Valley Primary School your child’s education, safety and welfare is of prime importance to us. As members of the school community your opinion and concerns are respected and valued. ADD Kiewa Valley Primary School is committed to high expectations in learning and wellbeing growth. This is lived out through our vision “Our community grows together through kindness, as empowered creative learners who believe we can all make a difference.” We celebrate our students commitment to our school values of Kindness, Respect, Integrity and Inclusion.

 

We firmly believe that all students should be encouraged to learn and grow in self confidence and esteem through:

  • Providing an environment that is happy, caring, safe and secure
  • Helping children achieve their full potential
  • Achieving success in each key learning area
  • Acquiring decision making, problem solving and critical thinking skills
  • Learning to operate effectively as a team

Our school is a former consolidated school, set up centrally in Tangambalanga just over 50 years ago through the merging of several smaller schools in the district. We are lucky to be set on four acres of attractive grounds with two large playing fields, basketball and netball courts and extensive shared play areas thanks to our many trees and covered seating areas. There is plenty of space to play!
 
At Kiewa Valley Primary School we are committed to continually improving our educational and recreational facilities. We have a philosophy that we are a community resource and as such we make use of our facilities for meetings and after school activities for children and adults. In 2025 through community fundraising and the support of our families we installed a yarning circle with Mural by local artist Kirrilee Anderson. The mural designed with student voice depict our beautiful natural environment in bringing together our acknowledgement of country and the hills, valley’s, rivers.
 
We have 140 students and currently have six classes operating. Kiewa Valley Primary School prioritises teaching students at their point of need, with each student co-developing individual learning goals in reading, writing and mathematics and our Year 3 to 6 students also a wellbeing goal. We have a in-depth intervention program, which is based on a hybrid model of in-class and out of class support based on the learning needs and size of the intervention group. We prioritise the support of our students who require additional support through our tier two and tier three interventions. We are a School Wide Positive Behaviour School who celebrates ‘catching students doing the right thing’. Specialist teachers provide lessons in Performing Arts, Visual Art, Physical Education, Auslan, Digital Technologies and Design, Humanities and Science and Library. We have computer facilities in each classroom and interactive whiteboards in every class to ensure the best computer access possible for our students.
 

We have a wonderful, experienced, and caring staff who are committed to ongoing teacher development and regularly attend Professional Development programs to keep them abreast of evidenced-based best teaching practice. You will find our teachers and office staff friendly, helpful and supportive.
