At Kalgoorlie School of the Air, distance is no barrier to connection, belonging and high-quality learning. Our school brings students, families and teachers together in a supportive and collaborative learning community where every child is encouraged to achieve their best.
We provide a dynamic distance education program for students from Kindergarten to Year 6. Our experienced and dedicated teachers work closely with families and home tutors to ensure students are supported, engaged and challenged in their learning every day.
Strong relationships are at the heart of our school. Guided by our values of respect, integrity, collaboration and compassion, we build meaningful partnerships with students, tutors and families. These connections help create a positive learning environment where students feel confident, supported and motivated to succeed.
Students participate in a comprehensive program aligned with the Western Australian Curriculum through a blend of daily online lessons and offline learning activities completed with their tutors. Our teachers work collaboratively to design engaging and innovative learning experiences that place students at the center of their learning and support strong achievement across all learning areas, with a particular focus on literacy and numeracy. Students in Years 1 to 6 also learn Auslan as a LOTE.
Technology enables students to connect daily with their teachers, the principal and their classmates, while resources and learning materials are provided to support their programs at home.
Learning at Kalgoorlie School of the Air extends beyond the online classroom. Throughout the year, teachers visit students to support learning in person, and students come together through camps, school visits and special events. These opportunities allow students to build friendships, collaborate with peers and strengthen their connection to the school community.
Our school is strengthened by the active involvement of families, tutors and the wider community. The support of our Parents and Citizens Association and School Council helps ensure that Kalgoorlie School of the Air continues to provide a positive, engaging and high-quality learning environment.
Guided by our motto, 'Seek the Best,' we encourage every student to aim high, embrace challenges and develop the confidence and skills to become lifelong learners.
