About Kalinda

Kalinda is a learning community of students, teachers and parents founded upon quality relationships characterised by our values.  At Kalinda we are committed to fostering a "lifelong love of learning".  We actively engage students in a range of meaningful learning experiences.  Through these experiences our children will construct those understandings and acquire the competencies needed for further education, the workplace and the achievement of a quality lifestyle in a constantly changing society.

Our learning centres on three global focuses:

  • Learning about ourselves
  • Learning about and living with others
  • Learning about and living with the environment

We intend that children leave Kalinda with an abundance of life skills.

These skills include children being able to:

  • Inquire, investigate, initiate, create and solve
  • To  communicate in multiple forms
  • Work independently and interdependently
  • Socially interact
  • Appreciate the arts
  • Understand local and global perspectives
  • Use new technologies for information and communication
  • Know how to learn
  • Value others and accept responsibility
