Welcome to The KPS Village

The KPS Village is our school’s community collective, bringing together families, carers, staff, volunteers and supporters to strengthen connection, support school initiatives and create positive experiences for students.

Formerly known as Parents & Friends, The KPS Village continues the same strong community spirit while embracing a more inclusive and contemporary identity that reflects the many people who contribute to school life at Karingal Primary School.

The name “Village” reflects the shared belief that supporting children is a collective effort, built through connection, belonging and partnership across our wider school community.

Through community events, volunteer opportunities, fundraising initiatives and family engagement activities, The KPS Village helps foster a welcoming, connected and inclusive school environment where every member of our community feels valued and supported.

Every contribution, whether big or small, helps strengthen our village and support positive outcomes for students.
