Students come to our school with a wealth of knowledge, ability and experience from their ever changing world. We recognise these individual qualities together with their differences and variations of stages in development, and endeavour to accommodate these variables to optimise student learning outcomes. As parents, you play a major role in your child’s educational development. Your positive attitude towards education, the teacher and school in general will assist in your child’s enthusiasm for learning. As a positive parent-teacher-student relationship is such an important factor in the education of children, we encourage your involvement in such opportunities.

Together we will endeavour to ensure the time spent at Birkdale South State School by your child will be rewarding. We put 'Students first'.

It is our goal to ensure every day, in every lesson, every child is engaged, learning and succeeding through inclusive education practices. We seek to develop high order skills of analysis and problem solving while developing the whole child and instil a life-long love for learning.
