‘Education is not preparation for life, education is life itself’
– John Dewey
The same high standard of education, delivered differently.
At Enkindle Village School, we use the Australian National Curriculum as the basis for our education, ensuring that all students are in line with their peers across the state (and country). This also caters for the transient nature of Townsville, with a large portion of our population shifting due to defence, we recognise the need for an education program that allows students to easily transition to and from our school.
A unique location for an
extraordinary school
Embodying our values of sustainability, connection and innovation, our school operates in a refurbished building centrally located on one of the most highly regarded universities in Australia – James Cook University (JCU).
Our unique location gives our students access to JCU’s world-class facilities, including Wadda Mooli Creek, sporting grounds, science labs, library, and more!
