Chevallum State School opened its doors in 1921 and currently serves nearly 500 students, from Prep to Year 6. Nestled in beautifully landscaped grounds, the school is centrally located to serve the communities of Chevallum, Palmwoods, and Eudlo. Students also travel from surrounding areas, including
as far afield as Caloundra, Peachester, Maroochydore and Peregian Springs.
At Chevallum State School, we believe that every child is unique, and we are dedicated to helping each student reach their full potential. Our approach is to offer a curriculum that caters to the individual needs of every student. To support this, we have organised our classrooms to allow greater flexibility than traditional age-based grouping and prioritise inclusion for all students.
We have adopted the Australian Curriculum V9, which is a government initiative which prepares learners for the challenges of an ever-changing environment. This trans-disciplinary curriculum addresses emerging student identities, new economic realities, evolving workplaces, advances in technology, diverse communities, and complex cultures.
Our school is committed to being a welcoming and safe environment where individual differences are recognised and celebrated. We strive to create a supportive space where every student feels secure and valued.
Chevallum State School’s motto is “Individuals Learning Together”, and we work to live by this in all that we do. We hope that you will experience this commitment during your time with us.
