EAL/D Information KPS 2024

Kooringal Public School currently has an enrolment of 58 EAL/D students. These students, together with their families, have made Wagga Wagga their home.

Originating from fifteen different countries, the students bring a range of valuable qualities, experiences and languages to KPS. This cultural diversity has enabled all students to learn more about a variety of customs, traditions, and perspectives which in turn enriches our school community and promotes cultural understanding.

Annually, we celebrate and acknowledge Harmony Day and International Peace Day. 

KPS fosters an inclusive environment, and our EAL/D students have additional support with two bilingual SLSOs and one EAL/D teacher.
