About this job
About Kairi State School
The strength of our school is the relationships that are built and sustained both within the school and wider community. We see daily, the community mindedness, work ethic and values reflected at the school when volunteers arrive to help in the classrooms, assist with beautifying our grounds or just call in to see if there is any way they can help. The community constantly works in collaboration with the staff to improve our school for their children.
Educationally, this school stands proud amongst the other Tablelands Schools, and continues to strive for excellence in academic, sporting, artistic and social endeavours. We believe in turning out students with a well-rounded education, responsible behaviours, and ethical standards of interaction with others.
Our motto, "Strive to Improve", reminds us that we need to be constantly reviewing what we do and that we can always do better. We strive to work together with parents and the community to support children at school so they can develop their full potential.
