Kirup Primary School - Exceeding Expectations

Welcoming * Supportive * Unique * Family-Focused
At Kirup Primary School, these values are at the heart of everything we do.

Nestled in the charming rural town of Kirup, just 55km from Bunbury on the Southwest Highway between Donnybrook and Balingup, our school offers a warm and inclusive learning environment where children thrive both academically and personally.

Established in 1901, Kirup Primary School is proud of its long history of nurturing young minds. While we uphold strong traditional values of learning, care and community, we also embrace innovation through modern technologies, independent learning, and critical thinking.

Our picturesque school grounds offer more than just beauty, they provide a calming, nature-rich setting that enhances both classroom and outdoor learning. Visitors often comment on the school's peaceful atmosphere and welcoming feel.

We cater to students from Kindergarten to Year 6, offering a quality education tailored to each child's individual needs. With small class sizes and a strong teacher-to-student ratio, every child receives the attention they deserve, including those requiring enrichment or additional support.

Kirup Primary is more than just a school; we are a community. Our dedicated School Council and enthusiastic P&C work hand-in-hand with staff and families to continually improve resources and opportunities for all students.

Our Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) program is embedded in everything we do. Guided by our core values of Responsibility, Empathy, and Active Learning, we foster respectful relationships, resilient learners, and a caring school culture. Pastoral care is a priority, and our whole-school approach ensures that every student feels seen, supported, and safe.

Our purpose is simple: to create a nurturing and stimulating environment where every child can reach their full potential; academically, socially, creatively, and emotionally. We believe that learning is most successful when students, staff, and families work together in a spirit of trust, communication, and joy.

Kirup Primary School is a happy place, where children are excited to learn and families feel truly at home.
