Sporting Carnivals

Each year KPS holds our annual Athletics, Cross Country & Swimming carnivals. This gives the students the opportunity to showcase their skills and earn points for their sporting houses in the house competition. Our top athletes are then selected for the school team to represent KPS and compete at the Wagga carnival and earn a place in the Wagga team to compete at the Riverina carnival.

Book Week

Each year KPS participates in the annual book week celebrations. Book week celebrates children's literature in Australia and aims to instill a love of reading in our students.

Community Events

Every year KPS and our wider community come together for special events that celebrate and recognise our students, families and community: NAIDOC week, Education week and Anzac Day and many more. Our Student Representative Council (SRC) also hold fundraising days to give back to our community or to assist our students with their educational journeys; Superhero Day to support our local cancer council, Day for Dolly or sausage sizzles to assist a student going to a national sporting event.

Student Enrichment Opportunities

Our students are offered the chance to showcase their abilities inside and outside the classroom. This could be competing in the Premier's Spelling Bee, joining the school debating teams, joining our award winning KPS band, school dances troupes, student representative council (SRC) and Year 6 leadership opportunities and KPS and PSSA sporting teams.
