The Staff at Waikerie Lutheran Primary School are committed to helping each child reach their full potential.
Our teachers are registered with the Teachers Registration Board of South Australia. All teachers have received qualifications from Australian tertiary institutions. As well as secular training, our teachers are required to complete further study to become accredited Lutheran Educators.
Staff receive training and ongoing professional development to maintain their skills at the highest level. This commitment from all staff toward their own excellence flows through to the students in their care. They aim to provide learning experiences that challenge their students and encourage them to take risks in their learning in a supporting and caring environment.
Waikerie Lutheran Primary School has a dedicated Learning Support Team. Students with specific learning needs are catered for through individual programs, in class support and tailored education plans.
The Administration and Support Staff are always available to assist with administrative, financial and general questions and are available from 8:30am until 4:00pm, Monday to Friday.
